A 14 year old friend of mine got suspended for telling a student(girl) feminist in his class that the wage gap was a myth. She cried and he got an inschool suspension, he then gets an essay assignment(unrelated) to write about why feminism is a great movement and how The Great Gatsby is patriarchal and sexist. He's stuck in the downward spiraling loop of punishment by the school for things he thinks are bullshit and is voicing himself. He is pulling F's in all his classes and he feels rejected by the education system, how do I get it through his head that school is important and help him feel that he still has control in his life? Should he speak out against his school, his teachers, what should I tell him?
This is horrible. Please ask him to write to me. [email protected]
Having a last name like that is cheating when it comes to domain names
Yiannopolous privilege, disgusting.
only because most Greeks can't afford a domain name.
Damn dude that's some scary indoctrination shit. What country is this in?
US, specifically Illinois. Sorry I couldn't respond sooner but my account is new.
http://imgur.com/tIHt5ld there is the assignment he was given. His teacher is saying that everything bad in society is his fault and that being a man is sexist. You must be a feminist.
Uh did no one fucking notice the first one?!?!? Is that teacher promoting Marxism? People joke about all the ultra progressives are communist making a come back but I'm starting to think that's no joke at all...
Considering it's an english class where historical context will most likely be forgone, it is a strange place to be teaching Marxism. If it were a history class that would be different because there would be lectures explaining the context in which capitalism was born and the struggles the working class faced. Leaving young students to their own devices to come up with a, most likely, wrongly informed opinion about capitalism would be more dangerous than learning about it in an environment where the teacher can fully explain the consequences of socialism. Knowledge is power and some of it should be taught with supervision.
I agree, I think what's scary is that they're using knowledge and education as a Trojan horse for brainwashing. After all, I think brainwashing is simply biased and one sided education
I bet you £10 it's in the UK.
Could be sweden or another 3rd world european country like germany
Calling /u/kidchillin - what country is your 14-year-old friend from, if you don't mind?
He shouldn't have apologized.
He didn't apologize, he has a very stubborn, driven nature. That's most likely why he got suspended, he made her cry, made it worse, didn't apologize. I love this kid because he reminds me of a young me. I don't want to watch myself get beaten by the system again.
Jesus christ, please be fake.
No it's real, he definitely exacerbated things with the girl to make it worse so that he was suspended but the root of his outrage was feminism. It was an in-school suspension, so complete isolation from other students. The essay is completely unrelated and is an actual assignment, I'll show you a picture of it http://imgur.com/tIHt5ld . It's awful, telling him that if he is a man he is sexist, if he is not a feminist, he is sexist. it's completely corrupting for young boys to be forced this mantra.
I think a good answer is what Milo said (way) below:
Shit I wish that happened to me, I would've just wrote in big bold letters 'AMERICA IS DOOMED' on the essay. No way in hell would I let anyone bully me in my youth. As an adult, though... Things have become different. There really is no freedom in America anymore.
Actually what I did was I helped him to write his essay on feminism and gave him some critical points to make about how feminist criticism of literature is designed to control language and women superiority.
Hi Milo. Huge fan i just recently watched the Milo vs Rebecca Reid debate. You completely destroyed her with logic while her responses were terrible and i noticed she always said "i feel like" or "i believe that" while you always stated solid facts and backed it up with even more evidence. Keep up the great work in defending us against the feminazis!
They can't win against facts. So facts are the best weapon.
Facts, and great hair.
For those who haven't seen the debate, Milo absolutely destroyed her and the crowd loved it.
Ninja edit: Highlights version
His closing speech was marvelous on that debate. Highly recommend everyone on TRP to watch it.
wow, fuck her
Biology and Medicine are girly sciences?
First off medicine is the highest paying science, and secondly biology is a huge broad range of topics. What kind of moron would suggest that Biology is a girly science?
Someone had a little cocaine before that appearance...
You do have great hair (no homo)
I think so too ( all of the homo)
When she said her own writing was "problematic"...man that was the fuckin icing on the cake.
Hi Milo, thanks in advance, it's very generous of you to give your time here.
Despite the rise of the cultural libertarians online, here in the UK we still have a deeply engrained sexism within our political system that allows female politicians to openly state words to the effect of "fathers don't really matter" (Harriet Harman) and openly laughing at the male suicide epidemic "because every day is international men's day." (Jess Phillips.) Naturally any male politician who said the female equivalent would have been sacked on the spot. It is truly galling to see Jess Phillips is still in post.
Given the way our political system works, that most politicians come from very privileged backgrounds, do you see them actually coming around to balance things out? From what I can tell, it's in their favour to keep the focus on sexism and racism as a distraction from rising levels of inequality and poverty. (Particularly given the recent research from the LSE indicating that there is a glass floor for people born into wealthy and powerful backgrounds.) I'm not really convinced that there is a significant level of either sexism (against women at least) or racism in our society, and I'm also not convinced these people are genuinely as stupid as the SJWs who think there is. That's my educated explanation of the situation. Would be interested in your thoughts.
Yes, there are plenty of horrible, sociopathic people openly laughing at serious health issues in public life--on both sides of the Atlantic. The flippancy with which feminists and female politicians dismiss the male suicide epidemic and IMD is chilling. And yes, I think it comes from privilege and ignorance.
Personally I want to see more irreverent working-class heroes charge into politics--or at least the people who stick up for common sense and science, which political and media elites no longer do.
Farage and Trump both perform this function in politics; people like Coulter, McInnes and me do so in media. And although you might not want any of these people running a country or editing a newspaper, respectively (I do, but I'm an anarchist--YMMV), what cultural libertarians and mischievous dissident thinkers are doing--and how terrifying they are to the Establishment--is hugely exciting.
We're launching nukes into politically correct spaces and discourses because we recognise what you all recognise: that telling the truth has become a punishable offence.
What do you think of the tactic spelled out here for fighting back against institutionalized Leftism?
/u/yiannopoulos_m I'd love your assessment of this.
Leftist compassion is generally not really compassion - it's Marxist class struggle (ie rooting for the underdog because you want to see the system destroyed) mixed with virtue signalling.
I think that explains why leftists generally don't donate much to charity. Studies have shown that conservatives donate far, far more.
This really shone through in the case of Nigel Farage. He was never going to gain any real power, UKIP won a grand total of 1 seat in Parliament, and ironically what little support they did have was generated largely by the media and political opponents that hated them in a kind of Streisand effect.
As a conservative you probably don't think much of Corbyn but the same thing seems to be happening to him. As someone who feels completely disillusioned by modern politics and doesn't really have a dog in this fight, I can't help but sit back and smile at the irony.
And Ed Milliband before him. Sure, he was a weak personality, but he was absolutely savaged at every turn. I'll be the first to say I disagree with UKIPs policies on most things, but I also think they deserve proportional representation based on the votes they got. Representationally this is the worst election in UK history, with an error of around 49%. FPTP is broken, and I'll admit that even when it benefits a party I don't support.
Thanks for repping Gavin McInnes, his "Free Speech" video podcast is excellent.
Hi Milo. As a left-leaning centrist who is increasingly disgusted by every political extreme, I just want to say thank you for fighting this fight. We may have different points of view on many things, but at the end of the day what matters is that you're standing up for my rights and the rights of others when precious few are. As a male rape victim whose attacker tried to go to the police with a false accusation in order to cover up her misdeeds, I am horrified with the way people like me are treated, and thrown under the bus to fit a narrative.
So thank you for stepping up when it mattered.
Thanks. I will keep fighting for you, because this stuff matters.
How to fight again feminism without ruining your career prospects?
For most people, the answer is: don't try. At least not yet. It's too soon. Let people like me clear the way first. We're winning, and we're pushing the boundaries of what it's acceptable to say, and before long you'll be able to speak more freely too. The best way you can help at the moment is support the work of those you think are pushing in the right direction.
What's the saying? Pioneers get the arrows, settlers get the land.
Milo, our champion of freedom and rationality. Taking the blows for us, until we'll be liberated enough.
Milo will gladly take a blow any day of the week.
"Taking the blows." Heh heh
What if you're a bisexual "minority" (race)?
Would I be immune?
Thanks for coming to do this AMA here. Your work is often posted with great admiration here.
My question- What do you think about the cultural shift that TRP represents? Many consider us to be just a bunch of misogynists, including men's rights supporters who would prefer not to have anything to do with us. What's your take on TRP?
People who virtue-signal for a living (most journalists, most people on Twitter) can't understand why a gay guy would spend his time sticking up for straight dudes. They are idiots. I write about this stuff because I see people being lied about and I don't like it and because I think third-wave feminism is driving the sexes apart and I don't think that's good for the future of the species.
As for the misogyny stuff, well. I've never met a single MRA, PUA, Red Piller, you name it with 10% of the hatefulness, vitriol and spite of an Amanda Marcotte or Jessica Valenti. By and large the men I meet in places like this are smart, creative, funny, provocative and interesting.
You are a gay man, I am straight man. What on earth could we possibly have in common?
/s
I like this answer. We may say that women are like children but we've never said that 90% of them need to be exterminated.
The Red Pill: better than Naziism.
Damn, I've gotta ramp up my extremist game. Mark my words, the Nazis will NOT be ahead of us for long!
Hi Milo, I deeply appreciate you coming here. My question is:
Do your colleagues at Brightbart read Red Pill? Do your friends? The general feeling of our writers is that there are a substantial number of notable people such as yourself who read our content, and perhaps incorporate some of our ideas but don't outwardly participate.
We in the MRA communities by no means consider you woman haters, we (or at-least many) consider the idea of manipulating a system that is considerably against us to obtain sex, as something that leaves a bad taste in our mouth, however we have nothing against the idea of "improving yourself" in fact many of us (i have at times) advocated this, i have seen others advocate the fact that some of the things brought up here are incredibly important, at one point i saw people on the MRA forums discussing the low self-esteem of males within society, solely because it was brought up here and we were discussing the merits of the red-pill.
We don't consider you misogynists, we simply dislike some aspects of the approach you take, but that's only some aspects, we do find some people such as "roosh" deplorable, but that's an individual and he by no means represents the entirety of your movement. Personally i would like to see closer collaboration between TRP and MRA's when it comes to addressing mens issues, specifically related to suicide and the general low self-esteem of men, and i think much of the MRA community wouldn't mind this, we just don't like some aspects of your approach (but when it comes to the areas i would like to see better collaboration on, they aren't a necessity), and we dislike that people seem to represent us as if we were you guys, however thats to be expected, no one likes to be consistently called the wrong name.
TRP is not a movement. It's a source of knowledge and a helping hand for men to thrive in a system tilted against them.
Have you seen the AMA by Karen Straughan? What is your opinion on what lead to her AMA to begin with, which was her defense that TRP should be allowed to exist, in essence because men need a "safe space" to exchange ideas because of how vilified men are throughout society these days anytime they speak their mind.
I hadn't read this one yet, but thanks, I'll check it out. She's great.

Gays are so boring. They've allowed the Left to domesticate them with "gay marriage." What the fuck. The whole point of being gay is pushing boundaries, getting away with murder, testing the limits of what can be thought and said. Gays are natural cultural libertarians.
Gays are also allies in the fight against feminism--we're subject to many of the same injustices men are, such as paying more in tax for fewer services, and we don't even want to have sex with women! In a way, the structural unfairnesses visited upon men in society are even more unjust when applied to gays because we don't have skin in the reproductive game.
That's why it's a shame to see some gays--but only some--buy into progressive bullshit and start playing along with the genderqueer nonsense. But take heart: half the gay men in the UK at the last election admitted they were voting conservative. The queeny, hand-wringing, language-policiing LGBT losers are the minority.
Those campy, prissy, lisping queers are a large slice of gay life, but there are plenty of gay men who find all that stuff utterly repugnant. They are starting to get braver about saying so, in my experience.
Just curious, do you personally believe in gay marriage? I've never really heard your opinion on that. I understand that you believe gays shouldn't get married/"domesticated", but for those that do prefer that lifestyle, are you personally against them having that right?
I think gay marriage is a shame. Maybe the best explanation I've given was with Dave Rubin - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0505RbdG5k
I wish I could quote you on my Facebook :D
People just don't get it; they demand freedom, they give them gay marriage; they demand equality, they get quotas; they demand a livelihood, they get longer working hours... AND THEY'RE HAPPY ABOUT IT!!!
Oh hay OP, that's the first video of yours I've watched and I just gotta say thanks for sharing and doing this AMA.
I live on the edge of the Castro in a house full of Gay Marriage-type gays and affluent liberal people and I catch a LOT of unfair shit for tending toward being what you call a "cultural libertarian" who drops bombs and makes trouble by calling out absurdities... I'm too straight and white to pull it off, yet also too conservative to pin any ideology on me. I lost my first job in the City because of it a few months in, cast out by a plot by a bunch of over-sensitive chicks in the sales dept; this PC policing is scary. (edit: added previous sentence). People want to destroy what they can't understand, is how I'd previously thought of it.
Much love bro, thanks for pushing these boundaries.
All marriage should be "illegal" ("not legal"? I feel like there isn't a word for what I mean... illegal implies there's punishment). The government shouldn't have anything to do with people's romantic relationships.
That's my opinion. That's between you/your partner/your church. But Milo seems to think heterosexual marriage is fine but gay marriage isn't and he justified that in a weird way that doesn't take into account differences between people and their lifestyle decisions.

I don't think there's many straight guys around that would "try men" as a result of feminism. Male sexuality seems to be a lot less flexible than female, and gay friends of mine have always either been gay or confused, never fully straight. I'd be interested in other perspectives though.
[permanently deleted]
I think watching milo has done more to my sexuality than feminism XD
Possibly - after all, the classical-era Greeks used to have sex with other men with impunity and no-one thought anything of it. I think it's probably one of those situations where creating labels encourages people to pick which one they belong to, especially if one particular label is seen as "normal" (straight). Having said that, I can't imagine having sex with a man myself - guys just aren't my cup of tea.
Thats of course the other side of the coin. Some people get caught up on rigidly defining sexuality as gay or straight while others dive far too deep into the "it's a continuum, man". I have no doubt that there are straight guys that would let a gay guy suck their dick. I also know that there are guys who legitimately would not get aroused enough to find it pleasurable. What I see increasingly is that people on both sides are unable to fathom the experience of the other. Everyone has become convinced that their experience of sex is the truth and everyone else simply experiences some shade of the same thing.
I for one don't like the prospect of sex with straight men for a number of reasons. Their first of which is that it totally ruins any mutual respect I might share with my peers when sex enters the equation.
It's always sounded to me like wishful thinking from gay/bi men.
This is definitely true, as an observation from a straight man in the law/finance sector.
Most gay men I know in these areas work crazy hours, don't want kids (good thing in this area), dress the part immaculately (that stereotype is true) in exchange for bonuses and their annual trip wherever with their boyfriends.
These guys fucking hate the gender gap myth and so on because they simply work harder.
That sounds awesome, do you have a source for that?
There's something I don't get about the gay being nurture and nature mixed debate. I could see having sex with men as a form of building relationships, intimacy, and obtaining sexual release. It carries no strong appeal, this is flatly intellectually conceived, so perhaps it's something I couldn't really do, but I can at least conceive of it. What I can't conceive of is not wanting to have sex with women. It's not even an option. It's a telling a fish not to swim situation.
Gay people often report feeling the exact opposite.
Have you ever fucked a woman Milo?
Edit: the people want answers Milo!
I appreciate people like you who help to show that what you put your dick in doesn't define your personality. This idea that all gay men are so radically different from straight men is just so polarizing and utterly absurd. We're men, after all; we have quite a bit in common!
Oh one more question;
It is ancient history for me now but when I was in university, an unpleasant feminazi lecturer literally accused me of sexual harrassment and reported me because on our universitys facebook page I posted a spiderman meme that said "I'm seriously about to slap a bitch" that wasn't directed at anyone. When I tried to defend myself and justify myself she just threw the metaphorical book at me and basically implied I had no right to defend myself because I went against some vague, open to interpretation university rules that I was never made aware of. I ended up getting an 18 month caution attached to my university student record that left me too concerned to apply for jobs where they might look back at my university record. So my question is a tough one but what is the best way to deal with these dogmatic loonies that are happy to make your life a misery when you did something so minor just for a laugh?
Keep your head down at school and don't get caught.
I don't know any company worth working for that will look at your University records.
He's right here and it's the kind of thing he's pushing so hard against.
But it'll take some time before university becomes anything of a bastion of intellectualism with all that enforced selfcensorship. It is best not to martyr oneself at this stage.
What are your thoughts on MGTOW?
Men are told constantly by the media and by politicians that they are broken and evil--that men are the source of all the world's ills.
Bullshit. If there's a gender in crisis, it's women. Women are in a total mess, thanks to feminism, asking for things they don't really want and turning themselves into grotesque spectacles because someone told them their self-esteem shouldn't be tied to their sex appeal. They end up more miserable than ever before.
The fact is, most women don't deserve most men. If I were straight, I suspect I would be going my own way too.
Damn. That's such a succinct and excellent way to phrase what we've been trying to tell men for the passed three years.
That damn testosterone doe.
Its gives that abundance mentality right up until they hit the wall - and to a lesser degree for the ones that stay attractive - beyond.
Women were attacked first. Via feminism. And men helped and drove that effort. Let's be honest, women would never cook a society destroying scheme like feminism up themselves. They are simply not interested in such endeavors. Ester Villar describes it very well in her book the manipulated man.
Basically men do not understand why women are so simple minded/ uninterested in science or progress and thought they need help to excel and achieve like men. To be happy you need to do what makes me happy. And thus the push started to emancipate women.
Yes they would. Just not working class women. It was the rich women who could afford hiring people to watch their kids and cook their meals and had nothing else to do but complain to their friends.
Hi Milo,
Huge fan. Been following you for almost a year (not in a creepy way ;)). Do you have a speaking tour in the Western US anytime soon? Also do you think we'll need a major event (war, economic collapse) before gynocentrism finally begins to retreat?
PS. Made you a thug life video. Enjoy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVSPwPrpQSo&feature=youtu.be
<3
Yes--hope to be back in March/April.
As for war or collapse--we're already fighting one, with radical Islam. Europe's demographics are being radically altered by mass immigration and the refugee crisis. Once women see what happens when you import real rape culture into western cities, you'll start to see a lot of change...
How come Swedish women are incapable to see it?
there's an Arab dude sitting on their face.
The next time you're in DC/Baltimore for a Gamergate meetup, PLEASE ANNOUNCE IT SOONER both here and at KiA. I really regret not knowing about it as I would have gone, especially with CHS in attendance. Hell, I know some of the venue promoters and managers down there and can set up some great deals, not to mention I have some ways to confound the haters who'd call up the venues to protest and bomb threat us.
We need a compilation video of Milo's Thug Self
You've said that it was a lot harder to come out as conservative than to come out as gay. I'm not gay but know exactly what you mean about coming out as conservative.
Any tips? Have your politics put any strains on some friendships/relationships you've had?
Anyone who will ostracise you for differing political opinions isn't worth having in your life. Fuck them. Cut them out of yours first.
Great answer. When your value is high, new, interesting people will come into your life one way or another. Don't waste time with close-minded morons.
Fantastic point. It should be mentioned that cutting low-value people out of your life may actually be very challenging though.
I agree with this, but everyone I know is a lefty. I don't think I've ever met anybody who agrees with me politically. It feels rather isolating even when among genuinely tolerant people (i.e. tolerant of political rather than superficial difference).
Hi, Milo.
In listening to you recently on the Joe Rogan Experience, you seem to have deeply held religious beliefs. How do you rationalize your support of that religion when they've done all they can to ostracize people of your sexual orientation?
I'm not against religion (the backbone of the stereotypical 50s nuclear family is religion), but it's interesting seeing your stance on it.
Edit: also, fuck you. The Princess Bride is a masterpiece of cinema.
Anyone who suggests being Catholic and being gay are incompatible is ignorant not only about homosexuality but Christianity, too.
For one thing, the Catholic church has done more to shelter homosexuals from persecution than any other institution in history. Worried about getting bullied, arrested or worse for your sexual proclivities? Join the clergy, and the church will protect you. It was that way for hundreds of years, way before the rest of society caught up and stopped chemically castrating gays.
I've never in my life experienced prejudice or discrimination from a Catholic for my sexual orientation. Gays, on the other hand, have told me to go take a bath with a toaster and have come close to physically assaulting me because I have the wrong political opinions.
I can't remember who said this, but there's a great quote about Protestants going to church because they know they are good people; Catholics going because they know they aren't. What's wrong with having a code for life you believe will lead you to happiness, even if you fall short? (Because by the way, that whole "born this way" thing? It's PR, with no basis in science. We are all a mixture of nature and nurture.)
The Left insists on ideological purity: step outside the prevailing consensus and you are history. That's how you get feminists like Germaine Greer vilified by campus feminists. Yet the consistency they insist on from others--how can you be a gay Catholic? You must hate yourself!--they never demand from themselves, indulging in an absurd pic'n'mix approach to personal identity where a person can, with a straight face, claim to be a "polyamorous nonbinary genderqueer hobbit," as though that were somehow less ridiculous than a Christian who happens to be gay.
Don't go along with petty, intellectually vacuous demands for "consistency." Recognise that life is messy and complicated and that people are messy and complicated too. We are all conflicted; we are all trying to do the best we can to live a good life. We all contain multitudes, as Whitman put it.
The Princess Bride is garbage and you should feel ashamed of yourself for pretending to like it for social plaudits.
You even aknowledge that there are no scientific proofs backing the "born this way" concept. Amazing. If only a tenth of world's people reasoned as you do, we would be living in a better world.
On a side note, i'm always amazed at the sheer ignorance people shows about the percentage of homosexuals in the clergy. People act like priests, bishops and cardinals were stereotipical straight men, if anything, the percentage of homosexuals is much much higher inside the church than outside, and it's easy to see and to understand.
At my church the only sentiment that seems to remain is that they don't want marriages, but with that in mind, in my church body there are active members who are in fact gay... I hate the catholic guilt narrative :(
I've fallen away from the church, but I have to say I don't know any Catholics that actively dislike or try to guilt people for being gay. They are certainly anti gay marriage, but respect for all people is taught in the Catholic church. The media seems to clump together groups like Evangelicals with the church and just assume the anti gay marriage sentiment is from a place of hate. It really isnt. Catholics truly believe that allowing gay marriage will bring heavy damage to the institution of marriage, that isn't from a place of hate, it's from a place of concern for one of the most important parts of a religious persons life. Totally understandable in my opinion.
I went to Catholic schools for 12 years, and I have the hardest time explaining to people that going to a Catholic church is nothing like they think it is. The priests mostly just advocate personal reflection, staying humble, and not being an asshole to others. I can't think of a single sermon that was dedicated to fire and brimstone, hating gays, etc.
You know thinking about it. I don't know any Christians that hate gays either and I've been going to church my entire life. In fact my mom, who is Christian, has specifically said to me that it is wrong to hate gay people and a head figure in my old church even went on a rant about how absurd she thought it was that a church would not welcome a gay person with open arms. The vast majority of churches I've visited are extremely open to any kind of person, because at the end of they day they want new members and churches are intended to be the place to go for outcasts.
ANYBODY WANT A PEANUT?
I've liked the movie since I was a kid. Should I hate Star Wars too?
Ted Cruz' favorite movie.
This is a great quote.
I know that I'm a sinner.
The 10 Commandments and the teachings of Christ are things worth believing in. They help to create and maintain civil societies and give people some really good reasons and a solid foundation for being good, doing good, and loving your fellow human in a cold hard world full of sin, temptation and treachery.
I also believe that when children have a firm Christian base to work off of, they generally tend to be better adults. No one is perfect, but to strive for perfection and improvement should be a lifelong endeavor.
I know I read an essay by Evelyn Waugh where he explained his conversion to Rome in those terms; I don't recall him specifically distinguishing Protestantism, though. I'll look it up tonight.
Waugh is a good example of a Catholic (by conversion) who clearly didn't worry much about the "sinfulness" of homosexuality, which he described as mere "naughtiness" in Brideshead Revisited. I do think, though, that his (and your) experience is colored by your particular locale. In other places, in particular South America and Africa, the Catholic faith has been less aegis and more malleus.
I love your work, Milo. Please keep it up. And if you're ever in Chicago shoot me a message, dinner is on me.
I don't know if I should downvote you for the Princess Bride hate or upvote you for the rest of your comment...
I've been reminded--it was Evelyn Waugh. And the exact wording is:
“The Protestant attitude seems to be, ‘I am good; therefore I go to church,’ while the Catholic’s is, ‘I am very far from good; therefore I go to church.’”
I'll have to look up that stuff. I consider myself Reformed (of the Presbyterian bent) and it was my understanding that pretty much any Christian believed that church was a place for sinners in the same way a hospital is a place for the sick.
Joe totally shit on Milo in the religion debate, that was a trouncing.
Milo, what got you into the entire feminism saga or whatnot, and what inspires you to keep fighting?
The whole point of journalism is to speak up for the powerless against the powerful. Most of the rest of the media have forgotten which is which.
God damn I admire this guy.
Real shit tho. That's such a badass answer.
Milo, yo. Why are sjw and feminists so very entitled? What generational shift has happened to make them think they are such victims and how can we prevent it in the next generation?
Millennials are the first entirely middle-class generation in history. None of them have ever wanted for anything, so they invent grievances and manufacture trauma. No one--not parents, teachers or professors--ever told them they were being ridiculous or challenged their assumptions, so they have grown up into foolish, poorly-educated and egotistical young adults spouting nonsense dogma about oppression.
Universities bear most of the responsibility for this. Safe space and trigger warning culture should be stamped out; free speech should be rigorously enforced. And space must be made for libertarian, classical liberal and right-wing professors, so students have access to a range of views.
Christina Hoff Sommers noted in a recent interview that it was the Dear Colleague Letter that was the defining moment that emboldented SJWs and campus liberals to go full retard with their "regressive" behaviors. I think she hit the nail on the head with this one. Ever since 2011-2012, things took a sharp turn for the worse. You mentioned before that campus administrators are allowing these kids to run around unchecked, and I think it's this specter of Title IX that the DCL represents that's driving all this.
Yes, for sure. The DCL had the effect it did because it threatened the one thing colleges care about: their funding.
For anyone who wants to know more: the Dear Colleague letter on sexual assault (AKA April 4th directive) directly guides colleges and universities that receive federal funding (~100%) to use school tribunes and justice systems to investigate and prosecute sexual assault cases. In addition, most egregiously, it commands the use of the 'preponderance of the evidence' standard, which is to say that if it is 50.1% likely that the claim is true, the defendant is found guilty. In many cases this results in suspension, expulsion, removal from university housing or jobs, restraining orders etc. often without sufficient evidence.
In addition, guidelines for interim measures are provided, and list such measures as changing housing arrangements (kick the rapist off campus), restraining orders (make the rapist live in fear while on campus), removal from shared classes (ruining rapist's ability to complete their degree on time), etc. all of which can be instituted with NO EVIDENCE of any crime being committed, and we already know of multiple cases where such measures have been taken against students who are known to not have committed a crime. I'll dig up the story.

Thanks for the comment/ link.
Would certainly be nice to see that instead of the increasing calls for racial diversity across American campuses in the wake of the "Mizzou" protests.
We should be moving further into the realm where gender and race doesn't matter, but rather your individual actions, opinions and ability to use logic, reason and facts.
Instead, it feels like the authoritarian left is pulling us back to a pro-segregation society all in the name of feelings and superficial representation.
Ultimately, if you feel uncomfortable and unrepresented simply because someone in a position of authority doesn't share something as meaningless as their genitals or skin colour as you,, then that says quite a lot about you as an individual.

There's a reason so many say that these people lack self-awareness and are simply projecting their own bigotry on the rest of society...
I've never seen this notion summed up so eloquently and succinctly. Though if anyone could do so, it would be you. I'm saving this paragraph to my phone for future reference.
Bravo Milo, keep fighting the good fight for us.
Hey Milo,
I'd just like to thank you for stopping by, especially after scheduling difficulties. I'd also just like to thank you for your journalistic work. It's absolutely fantastic to have a male representing male issues and doing a terrific job of it. I laugh every single time you rhetorically rape some feminist on the air.
Sorry I had to reschedule! And thank you for having me.
Hey Milo. Do you think that false rape accusations are more common than society and feminists like to make out? I was falsely accused of rape and the charges were dropped. I had to go to through 6 months of unnecessary stressing though. I think it's ridiculous how a woman can claim rape and potentially ruin a mans life just because she had sex that she regretted, wants to get revenge on her partner, wants to cover up infidelity..etc. There's a forum dedicated entirely to false rape accusations and it seems like it's a common occurrence. The worst part is that women rarely get prosecuted for making false allegations.
It happens all the time. You should see my inbox.
I am ex state law enforcement, and when I brought this up with the sex crimes squad they told me six out of ten rape claims are false. My respect for them grew tremendously, because they knew it was a problem and handled things with dignity.
I got into a situation where I took a girl home from the bar and her friends called the police, accusing me of rape. The police came to my house and put me in handcuffs. Shortly after that though, they started being super cool to me, like they just knew the whole thing was bullshit. Eventually they told me that is was BS and they just took the girl home and left my my house.
Milo, Thank you very much for your exemplary work and for doing this AMA.
The goalposts of being "not racist/sexist/masculine" are always moving when leftists are in power. Where/When do you see the current censorship of any pro-male sentiment ending?
Moral responsibility, accusations of phobias, and statistical misinterpretation is often used against men in order to get them to believe in gender equality and other such nonsense. When confronted with these strategies used against them, men often cover their eyes and recite the party lines. Is there anything compelling that you have seen which can snap them out of this trance (Besides potential for sex/videogames) ?
Thanks for the kind words!
I genuinely think we're about to see a big shift away from crazy feminist progressivism. The public is starting to catch on now, and they are incensed by the lunacy and unfairness of what they see. Most women don't hate men, and they are appalled by misandrist feminists who do.
There will always be a vocal minority of lunatics, but from my interactions with journalists and TV producers, the appetite for outrage-led, fact-free stories about confected feminist grievances is coming to an end. When that happens, men and arguments in favour of men will naturally begin to reassert themselves, because our views are based on facts, not feelings.
FYI this AMA is more entertaining when you read the answers in Milo's voice in your head...
And imagine his fucking amazing hair. I'm a straight, pretty manly man, but damn...that guys hair is fucking beautiful.
Yeah, it's pretty great.
Pretty, manly man?
Pretty manly, man?
Are there people not reading it like that?
Pro-Tip: read everything in Milo's voice in your head, make the world more entertaining.
Thanks for the reply Milo, keep up the good fight.
Hi Milo! My husband (a conservative Democrat) and I have repeated disagreements about how dangerous for America the extreme PC climate on campuses and elsewhere. He contends that college youth have been this dumb and irritating since the 60's and nobody really takes them seriously and they do the Left more harm than good by being so off putting. Please, in the words I can't seem to find, explain why he's wrong.
He's not wrong--college kids have always been dumb. But there's a difference today, and it's that the administrators and staff relinquished their responsibility to stamp out the worst excesses some time ago, with the result that silly opinions that ought to have been challenged and matured out of on campus were allowed to flourish in a "safe space."
These kids grew up and got jobs at Gawker and Buzzfeed still believing in the politics of the student union. Thus: we have a media that indulges in the same grievance-based, victimhood-obsessed, fact-free, feelings-driven garbage as you see on campuses.
Yet even this virtuous circle of moron reinforcement could be broken if faculty staff and college leaders were brave enough to say: "Don't be so fucking stupid. You are not oppressed. The 'safe space' you are demanding is called America; it's what enables you to speak your mind freely, however empty that mind might be. You are here to be challenged--get used to it. Now go back to class, or you'll be expelled."
In my view, any student demanding a trigger warning or safe space should be immediately expelled. They have demonstrated that they are incapable of completing the requirements of their degree.
This might be the best AMA response I have ever read.
I commend your taste and judgement.
Excellent answer Milo! Something needs to be done to give incentive for that behaviour. Currently I think the business of university sees incentive to what they are doing, but that may erode itself if people start seeing useless degrees for what they are.

Feminism makes women ugly. It attracts ugly women in the first place, and then tells them to get even uglier. I don't want to keep shilling my columns here but I wrote on this a while back, I think. Even Lindy West agrees that women who don't confirm to traditional beauty standards (read: too lazy to work out and get their hair done) seek out progressive politics.
Absolutely nailed it!! Especially like the work out and get their hair done comment. You could also use the same reply for the typical lesbian too.
the typical lesbian is a straight woman who either can't get laid or was burned by some guy (alpha widow or otherwise). More women than men are capable of changing up who they partner with - you see it with women dating transgenders too.
Attractive women don't benefit from feminism.
Until they get older and their looks start to fade. Then suddenly women's looks privilege starts to bite them in the ass now that they're not longer benefiting from it.
Milo, thank you for taking the time to do this. How do you have a conversation about certain things, such as the wage gap, if your opponent will not even recognize the falsehoods are just that-falsehoods?
Keep demanding facts, examples and reasoning. Keep making your case and explaining the reasoning. Be calm, relentless, reasonable. Nothing annoys them so much.
+1 to this - if you stay calm and keep hitting them with the facts, they'll get flustered and in their stompy tantrum often end up falling into their own traps.
Milo, thank you for coming here.
From my personal experience the U.S. military has become more feminine then ever before. Politicians led the charge against the military for having rape issues, but instead of stopping their after putting in preventive measures. They've toke it a step further and are trying to introduce women into special forces, the last true masculine space in the military and one with some of the toughest most self sacrificing jobs any one can have.
What are your opinions about this situation? & Is there any way to stop this change before the consequences have a lasting effect?
Women on the front lines is a disaster--it's a trendy experiment that the powers that be will have to reverse quickly, if they care at all about the lives of male soldiers. Or about winning wars.
Introduce a female to an all-male environment, the men shift from camaraderie to competition for the females attention. It's quite counterproductive but that's probably how the politicians like it. Let the retards run in circles while we make the big boy moves.
Hey Milo, thanks for being awesome. I recently read an article from an alt-right publication about women on the front lines. The author observed that when women are more and more accepted into previously male-exclusive arenas (politics, clergy, war) it usually means the roles they take are less crucial for success in the arena. eg. In the case of women on the front lines, the author's idea is that ground infantry is becoming less important to our overall military strategy, so now women are allowed to become soldiers. Seen like this, WotFL is more of a strategic decision than pure pandering.
I'm curious what you think of this idea in general as a heuristic, though. With leaders like Angela Merkel or Loretta Lynch or (potentially) Hilary Clinton, the idea seems chillingly accurate.
This is what happens when we turn the military into a feminist social experiment. When the vast majority of women are unable to pass the standards, the standards will be lowered. And when the standards are lowered, men will die as a result.
They will literally cram the feminist notion of equality down our throats, even if they have to kill every last one of us to do it.
Another country will get to us before the feminists do.
Milo, I'm a student at a very notorious left wing university in the UK. Please can you come and give a talk that'll some SJW heads spin? Thanks.
Of course--get me an invite. [email protected]
Hey Milo I saw you on JRE and you were phenomenal. I know it's a longshot, but if you enjoyed being on a podcast I'm sure the guys over on the PKA subreddit would love to have you on. I know I've seen the fans suggest them trying to get you on before, and I know I'd personally love to see you on.
A little about the show:
It's run by 3 hosts, Woodysgamertag, a youtuber that used to make gaming videos, and give life advice to the people that needed it. MurkaDurkah a guy that made youtube videos for fun back in the day that was beloved by a core following, and FPS Russia, the "professional russian" that makes videos of himself doing cool shit with guns and has amassed a following of nearly 6 million subscribers doing it.
It's a 4 hour show, however guests don't always stay for the full length, and aren't expected to. (It is a bonus though!)
They cover all different topics from current events to their personal experiences.
All 3 hosts are somewhat conservative, while being socially liberal, and they are more informed than the average bear so to speak.
If you want to check it out for yourself here is the most recent episode.
Never heard of it, but sounds like a lot of fun. Feel free to send me more [email protected]
Milo, I'm wondering - do you read here regularly, or ever contribute?
I haven't posted here before. But I read often.
In that case you must be familar with GaylubeOil! Can I mail you a Red Pill shirt?
Always be closing
You'll get a response from Milo... one day.
Why did you tell Joe Rogan you didn't really want Donald Trump to be president?
I continue to waver on this issue. Obviously I absolutely love him. Do I want him as Commander in Chief? The mischief-maker in me says yes. The grownup says no. On most days, the mischief-maker wins...
It's gonna be great Milo! When I knew a lot less I kept leaving you comments to check out Bernie Sanders. I'm so grateful I've finally gotten on board with Trump. Thanks for doing what you're doing! Exciting times ahead. I really appreciated what you said to Joe Rogan about not pushing alternative sexualities on kids just because they might seem eccentric. I personally don't believe in homosexuality. Thanks again! Love you Milo!
Milo, do you think the culture in silicon valley is a big threat to tainting the web? The bay area is full of leftist activists with a lot of time on their hands and seem strangely effective at enforcing consensus, as in the case of getting Mozilla's founder fired because he was pro-trad marriage.
And how do you factor in the temptation of cheap H1B labor to the various tech giants? What's going on here? Why are the tech giants seem always on board with the latest progressive trends?
I'm going to be writing a lot more about this. Huge subject. Sorry, I know that's not tremendously helpful now--but watch this space.
I love you, Milo. I am subbed to everything you do, and your stream with the lady who covered Mr. King was great!
edit: I didn't mean to sound so creepy. jesus christ
Congratulations on having excellent taste.
Milo fucking acknowledged me.
So guys, what have you accomplished in 2015?
Milo, I'm a huge fan, you're very informative and charismatic. I was wondering what you feel is the greatest injustice that is happening to men right now?
Not being gay, because they'll never get to sleep with me.
It's going to be a real shame if a previous partner of yours comes out and claims you're mediocre in the sack. You currently occupy a place in our hearts as a hedonistic men's rights crusader with an enchanted feminist slaying excalibur-cock. Please don't end up being too good to be true because you're the closest thing us redpillers are ever getting to a real life Batman.
Batman, Milo. Don't ruin fucking Batman for us. ;)
Hi, Milo. Thanks for everything. Proud to be one of your #5000.
I have so many possible questions, but will keep it relative Red Pill focused as that's where we are.
Within the gay community, behind the scenes, how may gays are actually into the idea of getting married, raising (some other woman's) children? Following that, I know that you've said gay white men are being pushed towards the oppressor category, but is it also true that some gays (besides you) want out of the whole progressive LGBT schema, because that vision of being gay is not the way they perceive it?
I am in RCIA, and becoming Catholic. I've been particularly interested in your rants against atheism. I respect the way you see your homosexuality as a burden. My parallel would be that I'm not gay, but I want to be Catholic, yet I love fucking many bitches without marrying them. So, no need to compare our respective missing of the mark regarding Catholic faith. But I am just curious, if it's not too personal, how you see yourself balancing the two, and furthermore, doing so in public, where if they don't hate you for being Catholic, they hate you for being a gay who's Catholic and not a church hater.
You say you have Hollywood friends who are secretly conservative, pro-Trump, anti-PC, anti-feminist, etc. I have a conservative-oriented screenplay I'm shopping around of a hedonist exploring religion. Another one I'm writing that is a brilliant but subtle satire of feminists handing their country over to Islamists. When do you see the climate coming around that conservative artists can come out with stuff like this, and not another fucking Jim Haynes "Carol" or vehemently pro-abortion movies, like at least 3 that have come out in the last 18 months?
Hello #5000 elite.
Yes, gays are natural cultural libertarians and my hunch is that the majority want out. I want the wholesale dissolution of the LGBT lobby. It's meaningless and irrelevant and most of its figureheads are working entirely against our interests.
I answered this I think elsewhere today, so I'm going to point you there. Welcome to the best religion. https://www.reddit.com/r/TheRedPill/comments/3x8fxm/im_milo_yiannopoulos_ama/cy2fi4y
"Another one I'm writing that is a brilliant but subtle satire" -- you sound like me! I'd love to read them. Most likely you'll struggle getting them produced, though.
<3
Number 3 you can't sell in Hollywood. Unless it is really good, then they will buy the rights to bury it.
Then I will go with Plan B. Working with producers in the European country I lived in for many a long year.
Milo, I have a younger brother who is gay and thanks to your work we have much more common ground to talk and connect over than previously. What would you say is the best way to unite those in the gay community with the Red Pillers of society against the atrocities being committed and what do you see as the future for both?
A simple examination of how unfair the tax system, healthcare, academia and the media are to men will demonstrate that gay men and Red Pillers have all the same priorities--and all the same enemies.
[permanently deleted]
Absolutely. The best response to this nonsense is to get a haircut, hit the gym, join a sports team and fuck all the hot girls.
Above all, they want you to be miserable. Guilt and unhappiness is feminist currency. So win, and be happy. It's the best revenge.
Your excellent taste in hair tells me you are over half way there already.
Hello Milo, thank you for taking your time to answer questions. At my work place, we debate a lot to pass time, and a few days ago we came across gender equality. The women complained about "rape culture" but I didn't know how to defend myself. What are some simple things that I can say to them that will prove them wrong about rape culture? Thanks in advance
I would say that the only rape culture in the west is of men in prison. Rape is expected, and by significant portion of society seen as a "good thing"
Which is the origin of the 'rape culture' term

TRP is a lab, and you are all scientists, cooking up the antidote to a fatal epidemic. My hat is off to you.
Do you have anything nice to say about Rebecca Reid?
She was very gracious and sweet after the debate, for someone who had lost so badly. And I think she will snap out of a lot of the sillier opinions she expresses. She's smarter than some of the views she professes to hold.
She seemed to learn a lot from you. Funny how that works eh?
Thoughts about Jamesdeen's rape accusations and feminism? Are you ignoring his case just because he is straight?
I'm watching. The fact is, we don't know anything yet--except that the media will blacklist someone on the basis of allegations, of course.
As someone who works in media, do you think that it's likely that his claim that some performers were offered up to $5000 by journalists for stories about him in graphic detail, as he alleged? Do media blogs really make that much off of stories to make that financially viable?
Of the 8 or 9 that joined in with allegations, some of assault, some of sexual assault, some of rape... what do you think of the fact that two were about claims that were disproven by simply watching the porn videos that they were about?
First of all, thank you Milo for taking the time to participate in this AMA. Reading your answers to a multitude of questions has been both enlightening and unsurprising, given your glowing track record.
Question: In your experience, why is the young men's societal views on a easily-perceivable RP principle like the prerequisite of attractiveness for sexual interest so... contradictory and conflicting?
Allow me to explain:
The concept of attractive people pair-bonding with other attractive people is nothing new. Even in most media facets, an attractive guy will usually be shown running off with some attractive woman. It's common in both in movies and TV shows.
And yet, at least in the cases of most young men, the notion that attraction can somehow be *compensated or substituted by words and wit has recently become the dominant go-to for any male/female interaction.
Now I realize pop culture is becoming self-aware to this fault. In the past few years, we've seen a drastic increase in said self-awareness of attraction compensatory behaviors when the term "friend-zoned" spiked in secular popularity.
But why then does that same society have such difficulties with coming to terms the failure of substituting attractiveness with words or accepting the ever-present proof that there is a prerequisite for physical attractiveness on the terms of sexually appealing to one's peers? With accepting that one can't simply "talk" sexual attraction into someone? (And this goes beyond PUA; there are tons of non-PUA/RP men who believe that wit, humor and intellect will garner sexual interest)
Is it out of some collective self-fulfilling prophecy? A collective misunderstanding of the root cause of past successes (she slept with him because of his appearance, not because he was "funny")?
The proof is all over the place and yet i you'll oft find them resort to bashing their attractive peers (dumb jock, his just an asshole, etc.) instead of taking the time/humility to look introspectively instead of playing the victim of circumstance or peer-intervention.
If the root cause was simply a matter of ignoring the evidence as a means to protect one's ego, I could accept this rationale, but only on a case-by-case (individualistic/personally-onset) level, but this viewpoint seems to span the majority of young men across various borders and cultures.
Thoughts?
The contradiction you have identified arises from the difference between what women say they want and what they actually want.
Funny how simple an idea that's self evident can be so inflammatory and contraversal.
It's got to be controversial. If women's word can no longer be trusted, then it means we don't need to put any value on what they say - the logical conclusion is that women simply shouldn't have a voice in anything because that voice is both unreliable and irrational.
They don't want their voice taken away, so they'll fight this tooth and nail. They'll run every hamster rationalisation available to pretend their words always have worth. (Realistically, it's just down to us to decide whether their words have worth on a case by case basis.)
It's inflammatory and controversial because it's so self evident. Everyone believes it on some level and so the fact that it's wrong requires a hundred years of brainwashing to convince people of, and even then it remains a ridiculously sensitive subject. If what we were saying wasn't true, it'd strike no nerve and be easily dismissed. There'd be no sensitivity.
In one fucking sentence. Holy shit.
BOOM, something so complicated made so easy
Hi Milo, congratulations on being fabulous.
I'm curious to know if you every got a response from Dr Emily Grossman after your article asking why she felt the need to cook up charges of online abuse?
In case you haven't seen it, she did a talk recently explaining why from her perspective she really believes she did get a torrent of abuse. It's possibly even more cringe worthy than her performance on sky. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Mbv4FfFlIk
Also - love your concept of quantum superstate feminism - I've put together a description of what I think you mean by the term and interested to know if I've missed anything. http://eyeisbloke.com/2015/12/12/for-the-uninitiated-quantum-superstate-feminism/
I can't believe Grossman doubled down on that garbage after I showed up what a big fibber she is. Shameless.
Great post!
I love all of your stuff Milo, you beautiful little faggot! As an aspiring writer, I'd like to ask you how you got your foot in the door at Breitbart and started your career as a journalist, and what was the catalyst for your recent success?
I know you want me to say dick-sucking but the answer is talent and hard work.
I'd believe either but tend to the latter. The amount of reading you do, on so many issues, some of which are about the absolute drivel that is feminism...
Just reading the news is way too much of that bullshit than I need
Is this really Trevor Noah hosting this AMA? ;)
He's so pretty. But he is a notorious joke thief. He's famous for it.
Milo - you have a large following. Can you start a petition regarding free speech on campuses and how the reasonable majority are being silenced by the radical authoritarian left?
I sort of do that, I think, by drawing attention to their ridiculous attempts to ban me.
Aside from doubling your wardrobe and having a worthy excuse to not date women, what other pro's are there for being gay?
Such great blow jobs.
Hi Milo, you've obviously got a lot of fans here, but what are your personal opinions on TheRedPill? Are there specific aspects of it that you like or dislike?
I dislike that no one has challenged me on the circumcision stuff yet!
No real need to ask as you've been clear you like them cut for purely personal reasons. And you know what, you're free to have your preference.
That being said, from a purely men's rights perspective I think everyone can agree boys should be entitled to the same rights as girls in this subject. If guys want to get cut once they're older, then the should be allowed to. However, babies who don't have any say in the matter, regardless of gender, shouldn't be messed with.
I would have to agree with this.
I've tried to convince my good friend on the Circumcision debate. He was pro because he did'nt realize how many babies die even in the first world due to it. They never say it was directly from circumcision, but "blood loss" or something else so the stats are shit.
cutting part of a baby's dick off is fucking absurd come at me.

Not the MRM sub.
Your opinion on genital mutilation is stupid and won't change via arguments. Better questions can be asked in a limited about of time.

Milo,
After hearing you on Joe Rogan's podcast, I got the impression that your homosexuality is based more on your attraction to the forbidden than it is based on your attraction to men. Curious if you think that's the case.
Beyond that, you seem very articulate and calm when you are speaking/debating- is that an inherent skill or something you learned?
Thanks for what you do, brother.
I just don't get mad. I wasn't born with the "offence-taking" gene and I don't get scared or nervous. I'm afraid that's just something you have or you don't.
I am a natural contrarian so I am drawn to all things forbidden by nature, and yes that does extend to my sex life. I think I put it best here... http://www.breitbart.com/london/2015/04/14/im-sooo-bored-of-being-gay/

Quote of the decade IMO
As a Canadian, I'm going to wait and see how the Gregory Alan Elliot case pans out before embracing that third bit.
Milo, how is your frienship with Pizza Party Ben going and when will the 2 of you host a Trump rally?
I'm going to visit him in Alaska and we are going to make Trump babies while Mariah belts out the Star-Spangled Banner.
I only have one more question. Can I watch?
Live stream!
Whoa! 11 minutes and a barrage of questions. This sub has been eagerly awaiting your event.
I don't really have a specific question, but I'd really like to know how we could get more people to speak up on the mainstream media like you do. MRA Movement never took off the way it should've. Do we need a new movement? Can MRA be revived? Does it even have to be revived? Would love to know your your thoughts.
Things are changing. Look at what happened when Martin Daubney took George Lawlor on a media tour. People at home loved him. It's happening.
Thanks a lot Milo! Appreciate your response.
If you are comfortable with the alt-right you have your movement (Trump, UKIP, all the different parties gaining 30% all over Europe). If you have a fantasy about a left-wing push back (MRA is left-wing as in they want big government to hand them equality). That is never going to happen.
Thanks a lot for bringing this up. I really had to say this to someone.
I'm a non-white Asian male. I joined Reddit because I stumbled onto it's exmuslim community. Being an exmuslim myself, it was a huge relief for me to find someone of my own kind. As I started participating more and more, I actually started hating the Left/Liberals for their hypocrisy when it comes to dealing with Muslims.
But the first real jolt I had on Reddit was TRP. And again, I saw nothing but hypocrisy by the Left when it comes to men's issues. A teenager is being executed in Saudi for participating in a demonstration. The Left will not say anything about the atrocities being perpetrated by these assholes, but will demonize any white person who dares question rape. Needless to say, I have no interest on supporting the Left's cause now. But being a brown skinned guy, I'm not sure I feel too good supporting someone like Trump.
This isn't necessarily related to TRP but how did you become so eloquent and concise in your way of speaking? Before I started to become involved in the "TRP" scene and knew who any of the big figures were, I saw an interview of yours on youtube and was incredibly impressed with your ability to articulate your ideas so clearly. When you say things it is almost as though your response is pre-scripted in that you never stumble over your words or struggle to convey an idea. If I am really focusing I can speak in this way but it is not something I could do as seemingly effortlessly as you do. Any tips for improving speaking ability besides, of course, practicing talking to people?
Be you. Don't put on a special speaking voice. Don't try to sound like anyone else. Express yourself as you would to your best friend, and you'll fix 90% of bad speaking habits.
And yes, a lot of practice, so you know your material well, you are confident with dates and names and concepts and you are used to anticipating objections.
These days it only takes 5-6 words of an opponent speaking for me to figure out what their rejoinder is going to be, so I spend the remaining minute working out my reply.
"But well you're just a!" for 99% of them.
Two tips:
1) Look up Toastmasters. I once asked my Dad the exact same question and his immediate response was to go to Toastmasters to improve communication skills.
2) Milo's response is literally no different that what sales people figure out once they become "good" at selling their product. After enough conversations, the subject matter becomes second nature, and you can rattle off intelligent, accurate, well-spoken answers as if it were as you described. This becomes particularly fun because then you can start to focus on tweaking delivery and word usage and whatnot once you're not having to actually think about what to say. I worked a sales job, made 10,000 cold calls in under a year and it wasn't long before I could handle the most brutal of rejections as if I'd heard them a thousand times.
Milo, long time fan and admirer here. (Well, I've been a fan since I saw you on that BBC Debate a few months ago, but it's all about context given your rapid rise in followers).
It's great to see somebody out there in the media standing up for common sense, I think that your rise in popularity can be attributed to your timing. The western world has been obsessed with political correctness and leftist nonsense for years, but I think it's only within the last 1 or 2 years that we've started to become submissive to acceptance, correctness and other forms of essential bullying.
My question to you is this, I've always wondered how you made your money, was it through venture capitalism and wise investing, pure profit from your previous websites and businesses or was it shameless inheritance?
My confidence in your ability is to save us from a social distopia will be unwavered by whatever answer you give.
My friends and I are looking forward to seeing you here in Dublin in the new year, and we would love to meet you after the debate/speech.
I prefer not to talk about my private financial affairs, but you can rest assured that no one can live like I do on a journalist's salary. So finish your college degrees and get proper jobs in engineering!
A few months ago you posted a tweet saying "Really the only qualification I ask for in my journalists is that they don't have a journalism degree" (https://twitter.com/Nero/status/634137972573650945)
What recommendations or tips would you give to someone wishing to go into writing as a hobby or as a profession?
*Additional question I just thought of. Do you feel many media outlets are still afraid of discussing mens issues in fear of backlash from particular groups?
I recently met you at #Milo100K but I didn't get the opportunity to ask you this then.
Don't, unless you're independently wealthy.

You're just trying to cut out the competition ;)
I don't have any competition.
I found myself reading and agreeing with a lot of the TRP ideas after getting sort of sick of hearing feminists complain about how hard it is to be a women.
Do you believe the reason behind the right-wing (racist) wave in all of Europe (and with #Trump2016 maybe also in America) is a result of the need to stay PC and calling anyone pointing out any statistics related to race/nationality is being called racist?
Good, decent people are sick of being called sexist, racist and bigoted when they know they're not. They are sick of political correctness and speech codes. They are sick of being lied to about gender, immigration, you name it.
The inevitable result is popularity for candidates like Trump. I, for one, am loving the spectacle.
Milo,
As much as I love your work, you've said that your success is based on your inclusiveness, and willingness to embrace those who are different from you, ie gaming/nerd culture. Aren't you being counterproductive when you say that Pokemon or Star Wars fans are losers who should feel bad? Same thing with Internet atheists; you're alienating a segment of the audience when you've said that that's not what you're about.
I credit my readers with the sensitivity, intelligence and sense of humour to recognise when I am playing with them.
There's a world of difference between affectionate trolling between comrades--taunting is how men bond, after all--and the hateful invective of the progressive Left. Don't you think?
pretty much this
How soon are we going to see new material from you and Gavin McInnes? That would be great.
I'll be in New York in February--hoping to do the show live then. So far we've only done Skype. Gavin's hilarious--one of the most naturally funny people I know.
If you need a place to stay in New York in February, get in touch, I have an extra room.

There is no longer any space on the political Left for anyone who believes in:
Well done for correctly identifying this.
As to your question: I agree. I think the tide is turning. I think you're about to see a wholesale abandonment of progressive values by the public. The truth is they've always been in the minority--read Christina Hoff Sommers on this topic. But it's getting even more pronounced now.
Amazing that fewer than 1 in 5 American women now calls herself a feminist. You've hit upon the reason why. Hopefully, people who believe in free speech, equality and fact-based discourse will stop voting for candidates and parties who don't.
Why did Breitbart throw Trump under the bus for the Muslim ban comment? Are you aware of what's going on in your country and indeed all over Europe (Rotherham rape scandal)?
One of the things people aren't used to seeing in this age of politically correct media conformity is publications that make space for dissenting voices. Breitbart does. We have 100 writers. You won't agree with the opinion of every one of them.
But I think our Trump coverage has been overwhelmingly enthusiastic--which of course pleases me, because he is awesome.
Have you seen Reggie Yates's documentary extremeUK: Men at war yet? If so what are your thoughts on it?
I'm going to write about this at greater length, but I thought it was a pity it slid into the usual whinging about "harassment" and how "weird" the manosphere was, when it ought to have focused on the facts, studies, laws that men's rights advocates are complaining about. A programme ostensibly about the men's rights movement once again became all about feminist grievances.
It felt like a series of character assassinations rather than an attempt to understand why so many men are frustrated and checking out, acting out or otherwise expressing their disillusionment with society.
The BBC is pro-feminist. There was never any intention to give MRAs a fair hearing or any kind of hearing. There's a part where you said something like gender relations are the worse they've been for a hundred years. You were then faded out and then there was a voiceover of Reggie saying "I'm not a feminist but even I find his views challenging". In other words ignore you. Now I'm guessing but I would bet that you then had a conversation about that point but he probably knew that the conversation would end up on the edit room floor.
I have a question. I'm planning on getting more active in MRA matters. I'm thinking of starting with a short article about UN women and their stats about sex trafficking; which are selective. Could you please suggest a good place or way to submit it? e..g. as an article somewhere or a piece to camera on YouTube or what?
Thanks.
it's funny how Reggie focussed on Roosh's anti-gay beliefs, picked two specific sentences out of his 6+ books to make him sound like a legit rapist, and the only feminist he interviewed in the whole show was given the most obvious easy-win talking points to work with (feminism is about equality, these men don't want equality). It's a real shame because I thought he was better than that. Also, focussing on threats and racism that we all know flies in every direction on the internet.
He is in the 2nd episode, bbc link. For those who haven't seen it and don't live in the UK, I mirrored it here: Reggie Yates' Extreme UK - #2 Men at War
As far as the episode goes, it is 90% framing it to make Reggie look curious about crazy horrific people, 10% genuineness.
There is no doubt why he continues to state that he has no clue why people are fighting for mens rights, or care about issues in the so called manosphere. He erased almost all the clues.
In the part that features Milo , Reggie is discussing the previous segment's convicted male troll with Milo. That troll sent what appeared to be serious and legitimate threats involving rape. He was jailed, and the other convicted troll was a women but they don't mention that. It seems from the editing, Milo thinks he is just talking about trash talk in general that happened to include the word rape and uses his normal defense of trash talk, but to the audience it makes him look like he is advocating for horrific activities.
I'd imagine if Reggie read out those tweets that got the trolls arrested the conversation might of been more balanced. Though only Milo could say for sure.
That's correct. They cut from rape threats to me laughing off trash talk, implying that I was laughing off rape threats. That's the only major grievance I have.

Sexual dynamics are different for gays. In fact, to be specific, they often mirror the 1950s household of Red Pill legend, with a dominant breadwinner and a passive homemaker who has a lot of time to stay looking good. Yet another thing we're better at... sorry guys!
Hello Milo,
Big fan of your writing. This is my question:
What is your opinion on the current glorification of transexuality? I listened to your JRE interview and I understand the problem that this issue presents to gender identity politics (if there is a female brain, then male/female differences are biological). How are we sure that it is not a mental disease, like schizophrenia? Moreover, shouldn't there be a stipulation that individuals that want hormone therapy should at least wait until they are adults. I've seen posts of people glorifying parents that give their children hormone therapy to justify their own narratives and beliefs and to seem "progressive" and get internet brownie points. Things that might be considered child endangerment and child abuse. Children don't know who they are and what they want, that's the role of a parent, to help guide their children during these stages of development. What are your thoughts?
It's sick. We're glorifying a brain disease. We'll look back in 50 years and wonder how we could ever have been so cruel.
Hi Milo.
I just popped over here from KiA to ask... Are you planning to do any more #BIGMILO streams? That was absolutely fabulous.
Definitely.
How's about getting Christina Hoff Sommers on the next one?
Or someone with an opposing viewpoint, just for the sake of debate. Betcha that Jenny McDermott would be happy to join for a chat...
Would I be doing any harm raising a son without a mother figure, like the MGTOW?
Just my personal $0.02, but I think kids need a mom. It doesn't have to be their biological mom, though of course that's best.
I think when it comes to boys, mom should be the primary care-taker until about the age of 6 or 7. At that point, it's time for the boy to start passing dad wrenches in the garage, learning how to mow a lawn, and learning how to be a man in general.
This the problem we have with the current millenial generation of whiny, entitled, feminized, young men, and in some cases, serial killing school shooters.
All Men Must Have a Purpose, Even If That Purpose Is Becoming a Mass Murderer
Women can raise boys, but they cannot raise men. Single motherhood is perhaps the biggest travesty to be visited upon boys in the last 100 years.
Yeah, I can can get behind that.
Milo, What is the current state of SJW stigma in the gaming indusrty, in your opinion? Are Devs and Publishers going to cave in or what exactly? Also is GamerGate winning this?
(PS I love you and your sacred hair <3)
Edit: Is there a way GamerGate (gamers) can help fight this cancer as of now? Example: Prioritize more ops and reinforce the notion of support for companies that stand up to this shit.
Publishers and developers throw bones to the crazies by offering, say, playable female leads. But they know who their customers are. I believe in the power of the free market here.
I can't tell you too much about the conversations I've had with publishers and publishers' associations, but I'll put it this way: they are by and large decent and reasonable people who know their customers are also decent and reasonable people, and very, very few of them buy in to crackpot feminist complaints about their products.
Oh, and they hate the games press just as much as the rest of us.
Thank you for your judicious and wise assessment of my hair, which is the best hair.
How is it that as a right wing religious person you know more about the gaming industry than the gaming press itself? You are spot on. Nintendo confirmed 93% of their userbase is male and official youtube statistics show that 10 gaming categories are in the top 15 most male-dominated categories, going as high as 94%, competing with bodybuilding and football! And similar numbers have been shown in esports.
Milo can I say that I'd love for you to report on this stuff, to dismantle the feminist myth of 50% of gamers being women, once and for all!
I will return to this subject for sure.
Don't have any questions yet, but just came in to thank you for all you're doing Milo!
I've been sitting quietly all this time listening to the media slam men and all this pro-woman bullshit, in fear that if I speak up I'll get crushed by all these feminazis. It's great to finally have a voice and someone to fight back.. keep up the good work!
I'm lucky. I'm social justice-proof. And I'm having a lot of fun. So you never need to worry about me disappearing. Every time they try to get me fired, I get a promotion. Every time they try to ban me from a university, more people get to hear about me and more people read my work. Every time they come for me, my power grows.
There's one argument, at least, for never letting feminism die!
Hello Milo,
Thank you so much for being a voice for men's issues.
Do you intend to visit India and are you aware of the misuse of Dowry law (Section 498A) here in India? Many men and their families are victims of it and (most) feminists in India are not bit concerned about it.
Is being critical of feminism an important task in the fight for men's rights activism?
Thank you in advance!
I don't know anything about this, no--but I'll take a look into it, thank you.
498, 354, 366, 367, 304, 294, 509, the adultery law, all of the readings are antimale. And that's before 2012.
Hi Milo, thanks for doing this.
You've recently come to the defense of gamers/GamerGate through your writing, your twitter, at SPJ, and even met many of them at various meetups. What is your honest, overall sense of the gamers that you have engaged with? Is there a stark difference between the gamers you interact with on twitter vs the ones you have met with in real life? If your answer is net-favorable, why do you think this group has become so maligned by the rest of society, and what if anything do they need to do differently to gain more respect from the broader public?
Sorry for another GG question which I'm sure you're sick of by this point. Thanks for all that you do, you beautiful faggot.
Gamers have no social capital. The Left hates them and lies and says games make us all sexist. The Right hates them and lies and says they make us violent. So it's an easy group to malign.
But, in my experience, gamers are some of the most witty, creative, compassionate and fascinating people I've ever met. I love them.
What is your position on circumcision of infants? In a recent debate it sounded like you supported the position (which I agree with) that it's a barbaric ritual that should be banned, unless people choose to have it done to themselves.
But you've also written articles like this, and shit like this still shows up on Breitbart. So what's your real opinion about it?
I'm a strong believer in the idea that everyone owns their own body, and that no one else should ever be able to make decisions for someone else's body (with the exception of medically necessary actions). Everyone should get to choose what is right for their own body - for every situation, not just circumcision.
Milo how's the spider bite?
Fine now--thanks! But I was worried there for a second. I thought the feminists had sent an arachnid assassin.
hello Milo from your point of view do you see the world turning more and more into "demolition man" ?
Yes! But fortunately for you lot, I am Wesley Snipes.
Milo, do you think that a Bernie Sanders presidency would make society more gynocentric and be harmful in regards to men's issues? Here is the page on his website on the policies he wants to enact in regards to women, some of which are, well, questionable. Also, do you think Bernie Sanders or Hilary Clinton would be less harmful to men and men's issues, if elected president?
All the Democrat frontrunners have deeply regressive, anti-male policy positions. Either would be a car crash. We need to fix Title IX abuses, not double down on them.
In your experience with Cassie from the Red Pill Documentary, would you still call her a feminist as you understand the label?
No, I don't think so. She is of course entitled to describe herself however she likes. But I think feminism means something hateful and ugly now, and she's neither of those things.
You recently wrote about hormone based birth control http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2015/12/08/birth-control-makes-women-unattractive-and-crazy/
Hey, Milo, good to see you here!
I was wondering what you might think of a speculation I have, given personal experience and some evolutionary biology I've studied.
Human smell is largely subconscious but highly acute nonetheless. A woman who has just given birth a few hours ago can more accurately identify which baby is her own among others by smelling a piece of clothing they've worn than by looking at them, for instance.
Likewise, genetic compatibility of a potential mate is more accurately predicted by smell than by any other means.
What is known colloquially as "chemistry" is largely down to smell. This is why people sometimes fall hard and fast online or even in person, and then when it's time for that first kiss, they're suddenly, "hmmm, this just doesn't feel right. There's no chemistry." The first kiss is the first time, given how often we bathe and how much scent we tend to use, that you get your first good whiff of the other person.
When women are not pregnant, they strongly prefer the smells of genetically compatible males. When women are pregnant, that changes, and suddenly they strongly prefer the smells of males who are closely related to them--fathers, brothers, sons.
Now. Given all of that, I was very interested to read an article on "sexual chemistry" that quoted a marriage counsellor as saying: "You'd be amazed at how many couples I've seen who've been married for 10 or 15 years, and all of a sudden the wife is complaining, 'I just can't stand the way he smells.'"
This is very much my own experience with my ex. I got my tubes tied after three kids, and all of a sudden he smelled like gamey pork to me.
We have seen a marked increase in heritable disorders and conditions over the last 40 or 50 years: allergies, asthma, auto-immune disorders, ADHD, autism (is it weird that they're all "A" words?).
Two of my three kids were hyperlexic--super-early readers but very late talkers, and have completely atypical social development and skills that sometimes get misdiagnosed as autism. I mean, they've gotten by and have mostly grown out of the most handicapping aspects of hyperlexia, but they're still weird as fuck. When I looked at the indicators for hyperlexia, they're traits that are overrepresented on my side of the family and their father's.
Do you think that because hormonal birth control partially mimics the hormonal state of pregnancy (you're already pregnant, so don't release another egg), that maybe this increase in these heritable disorders and conditions, as well as the seeming epidemic of divorces that occur round about the time when women have had their children and are going off the pill, might be due to how the pill disrupts women's ability to detect the genetic compatibility of a given male through "sexual chemistry"?
What you are getting into are some of the reasons why I think hormonal birth control should be restricted to married women: it actually changes mate selection.
While I've known/realized the divorce problems inherent to the pill, I hadn't considered the genetic incompatibility leading to more heritable diseases angle. It's a definite possibility, but also possible that the pill leading to later and later first births is also causing that problem. Might even be both leading to the increases in those disorders.
I've seen a graph combining the adoption of hormonal BC and the divorce rate. Near perfect correlation with a time lag of about 3-5 years.
Remember that women's mate preference changes across the ovulatory cycle (Haselton, Gangestad), and the pill makes a woman's body think that she's pregnant. I've seen a woman split from her bf of 14 years 2 months after going off the pill, for, in her words, no real reason.
As an additional question for Milo:
One thing you mention a good bit in interviews is that being gay allows you to get to a deeper level of debate, since you can't just be dismissed. There are also women, such as the wonderful Christina Hoff Sommers, who can argue for us. Sometimes it seems that these are the only arguments that are heard with out immediately being dismissed as misogyny. Is there a future of straight men being able to engage in these debates, or will we have to continue to depend on people like you and Christina for anything to be heard. Could GamerGate lay the groundwork for how these stands could possibly be taken?
It'll happen. Just not yet.
@Nero :P
I'm a far left liberal on most things, yet I find your work enthralling.
GamerGate is where you got my attention and I assume that is what spring boarded you into the spotlight.
Some of your other writing, like pissing on The Princess Bride, really isn't interesting to me.
I understand that the more wild and crazy things you say, the more money and attention you'll get .. but ..
My hope is that you'll stay true to what brought your work to my attention in the first place .. #GamerGate :)
Do you plan to continue taking the piss out of SJWs and offense culture?
I plan on continuing to take the piss out of everything. Sometimes I write about really important stuff. Sometimes I shitpost about trivia. Most readers enjoy all of it, but for different reasons. Some are only going to want the serious stuff. That's okay!
For the record, I don't play a ridiculous person in public for attention. I'm the same with the cameras off. It's just who I am. I've never been able to stay serious for more than a few hours at a time and even my music and movie choices are a mixture of seriousness and attention-seeking. (Wagner, Mariah Carey and Marilyn Manson, since you asked.)
It seems that culture really started shifting after Obama came into office, with everything becoming super PC around 2008. Do you think another Republican in office would swing things back in the other direction?
Only Trump can save America.
[permanently deleted]
No, not yet. Not in my public debates, anyway.
I'm not happy about that, by the way--but TV stations can never find anyone to agree to debate me.
What? A women not interested in a debate based on actual facts but interested in lobbing insults from a distance? Say it ain't so!
Does it make sense to push for All-Male colleges in America?
It seems boys education is slipping so bad that the only jolt our society would need to start stemming the tide is for the need for all boys schools.
The reasoning would be simple : K-12 is failing and not producing enough college ready boys that All-Boys colleges are needed in the interim.
Men do better in co-ed schools. Only girls do better on their own. So no. And in any case, you're only shielding boys from what happens at college and in the workplace... better they know now.
Are you sure about that? Or is it that men do better in co-ed schools with the western education system which is catered to women? I could imagine a group-bonding system based on competition could do wonders for boys.
Yes, I was in several all-boys classes which my high school tried briefly. In the two semesters where they ran boys only and girls only courses in nearly every department, boys grades (including mine) shot sky-high. I jumped from a C+ student to a 108% grade in Trigonometry, straight A's across the board, and a 99th Percentile score on the ACT Standardized test. All male classes, including ONLY male teachers for boys, were a staggering success.
Girls grades stayed level for those 2 semesters.
They cancelled it for "budgetary reasons".
Anyway, that's my experience. If factual work elsewhere proves otherwise, I'll adjust my opinion.
Many thanks for stopping by.
What do you think the long term impact of gay marriage being legalized in the US as heterosexual marriages (largely initiated by men) are declining and at an all time low will be on marriage laws in general?
Do you think economic and technologival factors like women in the workforce and no fault divorces and birth control mostly cause modern sexual dynamics, or are simply enablers of what could exist on its own with cultural forces like third wave feminism? Is it possible for sexual norms and marriage to change, absent changes in birth control availability and female workforce participation in your opinion?
It's interesting that homosexuals are flocking to traditional institutions while heterosexuals are abandoning them. See, we always know best!
Hi Milo,
Thanks very much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to do this. I am in admiration over your ability to stand up for what you believe in, no matter how unpopular it is.
I've dabbled in journalism in university, and have written a couple of very controversial articles that have sometimes earned the ire of my friends and the editorial staff. Of course, Third Wave Feminism is a completely different beast when it comes to controversy. A lot like Islam, some people argue that some tenets of the ideology are not open for debate.
What would your advice be for someone who wants to inject fresh thinking and add to the debate while still being successful in this PC-dominant world? (i.e.: How can I speak to the mainstream about my not-so-mainstream opinions without being relegated to the fringe?)
Once again, thanks for doing this!
Get a real job and do it as a hobby. Don't make journalism your life. Focus on being smart, successful and looking after your mind and body. Be happy. Then you can share your opinions from a place of security--and with a job they can't take away from you.
Hi Milo,
You recently tweeted about how upset you were at the price you paid for a train ticket and expressed your desire to nationalise the railroads once again. Was this a serious statement? Do you believe the nationalisation of private sector services would be beneficial to the country and if so why? I've been a big fan for a long time but this really troubled me. With the rise of Jezza C and his outdated and ludicrously dangerous ideas is it not more important now than ever to stand firmly against these authoritarian socialist ideas?
You also mentioned recently that you don't do "poor people drugs" yet then said you like to bosh a bit of Kevin. Now, everyone likes to have a wonky night with Kev now and then but you must understand, it is drug for the plebs.
It's these kind of statements which make me worry that you are in fact a poor, straight, atheist commy. Please put my mind to rest Milo.
And of course ombre, if you're ever lucky enough to make it to the lush and prosperous land of Sandbanks mi casa es tu casa.
Sandbanks sounds like the name of a military academy so I'll take you up on that.
Not sure how serious I am about renationalisation. I remember the trains being cheaper (or, at least, prices not rising as fast) and more often on time in the South East when the government ran things a while ago.
I take your point about ketamine.
In the recent UK documentary 'Reggie Yates extreme UK' (episode 2) that you featured in, did you get the feeling (off camera) that Reggie understood the plight of men inhabiting the manosphere, more than he let on? And also were any scenes or anything you said not included/edited out?
I got the feeling he was more sympathetic than the final edit suggested, yes.
Hi Milo,
Thanks for taking the time to do this. I'm at one of the American schools that has been in the news recently with respect to protests about safe spaces and racial injustice. The administrators of these schools seem to be in a bit of a pickle, since over the years they've been allowing this monster (social justice ideology) to grow right in their backyard. Now, that same monster is turning on the progressive school administrators that have been allowing and facilitating its rise. Not only that, but any reasonable administrator can tell now that it's not financially/pragmatically possible to do enough to please the activists.
So here's the question: What do you see happening in the future as more and more progressive administrators are forced to step down under pressure from social justice activists; should we expect the situation to eventually dissipate on its own as the movement inevitably dies down, or do you think that these successes will only put even more progressives into positions of power that will magnify the problem? Also, what can you say in terms of strategy for an administrator to combat the activists whose insanity is now too much even for him/her to tolerate?
Administrators have to start saying No. Until they do, nothing will change.
Hi Milo. I'm a big fan of yours and I was sickened by a photograph of you with that Bristol university student who wanted you banned from the debate (the girl who bombed out of the interview because she was asked difficult questions about the safe space policy). why did you let her take a selfie with you? would Malcolm X have done that?
She refused to shake my hand after crashing the debate afterparty and when everyone laughed at her she eventually asked for a selfie and I thought I'd be the bigger man and say sure. Her stunning and brave principles didn't stop her starfucking instinct--and I think most people watching will have come to that conclusion.
Hypergamy doesn't care. I've banged some women who couldn't stand me personally because of it. One in particular despises my red pill behaviors, but because of my status and physical build she still wanted to fuck, which I did. Twice.
Milo, is it worth debating radical lefty sjw's when all they ever seem to do is lie and misrepresent?
Of course, but insist they stick to facts, studies and science, and tell them you don't care about their emotions and you are not going to debate on the basis of hurt feelings.
That's sound advice. Cheers!
But I've noticed the more evidence you bring up, the more steadfast they become in their argument, I feel like they need to come to these conclusions on their own
Exactly the same problem I'm facing.
I got into it recently with a feminist columnist at the local paper. Any time I asked for evidence, she made excuses. Everytime she demanded my evidence, she refused to look at anything I produced. In the end she insulted me by calling me an MRA (as if the idea of men having rights is insulting) and stormed off. The window of discourse has shifted so far it's tough to even see through it.
That's what happens all the time. Feminists demand sources for even the most commonly widely known concepts (gravity, etc), then change the subject immediately before addressing them. Meanwhile, they are never able to provide prooof their own, or provide the weakest evidence if they do. And they always end up resorting to insults when they lose the argument or get clearly shown up. While this transparently reveals them for what they are, the worst part is that feminist audiences behave like Romans at the Coliseum and shriek with delight at everything they say and seem unable to acknowledge anyone else winning a point or undermining theirs. In short, even with a winning argument and a mature level of patience it sometimes seems impossible because they seem incapable of admitting their own errors.
Another thing is, keep making your point, even in (maybe especially in) the face of baseless accusations, and if they keep accusing you go to "so you have no counterpoint to my argument". They win if you abandon your point just to start defending yourself against baseless accusations.

I heard once you saying you "don't believe in lesbianism"? Is that true? If so, can you elaborate?
I don't think lesbians are a real thing. At least, there's only a tiny number of women who are actual lesbians. The rest are just lonely, or unhappy, or bitter, or reeling from a bad relationship. They always go back to men in the end. Sex with no penis involved isn't sex--it's a cry for help.
I think true lesbians do exist, but yes, they're much, much fewer than they claim to be. However, apart from man-hating bitterness, I think it's pretty much about hypergamy. Erase all masculinity, make men look weak and women look stronger, and women will go for faux "alpha" women. I guess that's the lesbian-feminist utopia. Making lesbians the new alpha and converting all men into betas, so hypergamy makes women instinctively attracted to the lesbians.
Hey Milo!
How do you feel when feminists call gay men misogynistic? Do you consider it homophobic and thus yet another example of feminist hypocrisy?
And how would you address those on the right who are wary of homosexuality, as a sign of modern moral decline? Has the fear of mass immigration of perhaps less tolerant groups into the west caused a shift in the gay community's political leanings?
How welcome do you think you would be in America's conservative south, given your unique position on the political spectrum? Have you ever gone there, and if you have, what was your experience?
Gays aren't misogynists, we just don't always care about tiptoeing around women's feelings--and when you think about it there's no reason why we should. To some people, that amounts to "misogyny."
Allowing mass Muslim immigration will have only one effect on the gay community: more conservative voters. http://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2015/11/16/im-a-gay-man-and-mass-muslim-immigration-terrifies-me/
I have so many fans in Texas I can't tell you. They call me the only fag they'd have a beer with. And I've had lots of email from people in places like Alabama and Tennessee, from parents of gay kids, saying they hope their kids turn out like me and not like what they see on television. I don't think people in the South are bigoted. I just think they're fed up with being lied about and lied to--and when a gay guy, even a flamboyant one, talks common sense, they celebrate him!
Reminds me of the quote by Thomas Sowell, "When people get used to preferential treatment, equal treatment seems like discrimination"
Hi Milo! One feminist told me the little focus on male bodies in porno/erotica is because of patriarchy. What's you opinion about such disparity?
Men watch porn and men don't want to look at men. They only care about the woman on screen. Not rocket science. And not sexism, either.
Hey Milo,
Just wanted to say I loved your interview with Joe Rogan. Do it again if you can.
For sure! Joe and I got on great. Will definitely do the show again when next in LA.
As a fellow right-wing faggot, I am absolutely loving how popular your writing has become. I am literally the only gay man I know under the age of 35 who is not a bleeding-heart liberal. I blame it on two factors: hanging around women too much, and pop culture brainwashing. Gay men are being conditioned by society to act like uptight lesbians, and it breaks my heart.
So what do you think conservative fags like myself should do? I try to tell people that now that gay marriage (barf) is legal, there are really no good reasons for gay men to vote Democrat. All this does is make them act like upset lesbians. Should we start a "Stop Acting Like Lesbians" campaign for gay men?
Yes! I love it! I'll found the movement with you.
Yo Milo
No questions, just a big thanks for destroying feminist ideologies one breitbart article at a time. TRP as a whole appreciates your work and effort in swimming against the current and being the voice of reason in a lost generation. Keep doing you.
You're welcome. They fucking hate me, which should make you all as happy as it makes me.
Hi Milo. I have a question about women and their political preferences. I see a trend in Europe that most women vote left political parties. These are the same left parties, that support mass muslim immigration. Despite the fact that Muslims immigrants commit the most rape crimes and have very little respect towards women and come from countries, where a women's opinion is worth half less then that of a man. Despite these facts, why in your opinion do women vote for the left? And why does every year in the UK 6,000 people convert to islam , most of which are women?
Ann Coulter says women shouldn't vote, because although they don't put much into the system they are the beneficiaries of all the services. So they take a "magic checks from the sky" approach to voting and always go Left. They also go Left because the Left is all about feelings and niceness and the easy, cheap solutions rather than the hard but more effective proposals. I like this argument, even though it's probably not a realistic proposal in today's world.
Western women crave real men, even though they have been telling men to soften up for decades. Now they've turned most men in the west into snivelling wretches, it's not hard to see why a swarthy, buff, hypermasculine aggressor would be seductive. These women don't care about the Koran--they're converting because they're intoxicated by their hot new brown boyfriend. Just look at Jihad Jane, Jihad Jenny or the "white widow" Samantha Lewthwaite who churns through jihadi boyfriends.
The only thing the Muslim world gets right is Saudi not letting women drive. Their road traffic accident stats must be the envy of the world! Just goes to show, you can arrive at the right conclusion for the wrong reasons.
Hi Milo. Recent fan of yours and unfortunately missed the chance to meet you in Bristol a few weeks ago. I have a few questions.
Are you returning to Bristol any time soon? (I would like to shake your hand)
Can I touch your hair?
Would you consent to drinking gin with myself and Indian friend who you briefly talked to on twitter before your scheduled Bristol attendance?
Keep fighting the good fight - we need more journalists like you.
P.S thank you for letting me say faggot, you big poof.
I insist that everyone should say GAY, FAGGOT and QUEER whenever the fuck they want!
It seems gay men retain a male sexuality while switching the focus on men. The gay community, sexually, seems very much to me what the straight community would look like if women really did 'want sex as much as men.' This turns me towards lesbians. Lesbians might not be quite up to the level of gays in promiscuity (of course I could be way off mark here), but the ones I've known are, on average, far more promiscuous and open then their straight counterparts. I don't see their behavior as analogous to gay male behavior in the ways mentioned before, otherwise they'd likely be less promiscuous as both parties would be holding out for the best possible partner. Any thoughts or explanation? The only thing that comes to mind is that women are hard-wired to be rape focussed in my opinion, but there is no threat of forced rape by women to women.
If you were a straight male, do you think you would still be a influential figurehead? Do you think people would still take you seriously? Do you think you have more or less power talking about this subject while being gay.
~Thanks for talking with us.
It would have been harder for me to get a hearing, for sure. Fortunately I have GAY PRIVILEGE.
I've noticed that BBC bias against men seems to get worse by the day and it's now almost total feminist propaganda every day, particularly on BBC Three. What's the best way to take on BBC bias in your opinion?
Also, what events do you have lined up for 2016 where people can catch you live?
Best to keep an eye here - http://yiannopoulos.net/tour/
Loads coming up in the next year. I'm planning a big US tour, hopefully making both coasts and a fair few flyovers...
We'd love you over in Canada, particularly feminist-entrenched hellholes like Toronto. If you want to maximize the number of Leftists who hate you, your time would be well spent there.
The amount of feminist outrage would collapse in upon itself and Toronto would vanish into a singularity.
Hi Milo, quick question!,
How do you get your hair to be so fabulous?
Staff.
Hey Milo! A football league is rumoured to be starting in England soon whereby the football matches will be played by women wearing only lingerie. As you'd expect, feminists are in uproar about the rumour as they believe it objectifies women. However, I think that if this league is starting then it could lead to the complete opposite - it will attract many viewers, maybe for the 'wrong' reasons, but if this league does become one of high-profile then it will desexualise women, which is what many feminists really want. What are your opinions on this proposal?
Not even full nudity could rescue the horror that is women's football.
Ok, so satire aside, let's talk circumcision. You've made it known that you prefer the men you are with (sexually of course) to be circumcised. I hae no issue with that. What do you think of the notion of the right to bodily integrity, meaning that infants should not be circumcised and that the choice should be made when they are old enough to understand what is being done to them?
I'm someone who went to one of the most liberal universities in America, your work has been instrumental in making me realize that I'm actually a conservative, nevermind articulating just why all the SJW crap I was exposed to made my blood boil.
I'm not too concerned about widescale change myself, but I have been pleasantly proved wrong that it is possible due to the work of gentlemen such as yourself, Gavin and Crowder. I'm humbled that the manosphere claims you as one of its champions. Fucking thank you for everything that you do.
As for a question. I'm an American expat in Greece. I noticed that there are zero conservative youth groups here. Every young person espouses at least superficially leftist norms or at least talking points. It's a funny society in which the youth carries the specter of religiosity, combined with some of the most flippant attitudes toward anything resembling traditional relationships.
Any plans to visit the motherland for some talks or at least an Adonis shag or two?
Thank you for the kind words. I'm not really into Greeks--too lazy in bed--but I should definitely come visit soon.
Woah, this is pretty cool. I've been checking you out the last couple weeks. I think you bring up a lot of interesting points that modern society keeps trying to ignore which is fantastic. I don't really have any questions, just want to say that you should keep up the awesome work.
Appreciate it
[permanently deleted]
I keep meaning to read it. Seems inevitable to me that feminism will really suffer when women experience the reality of importing Middle-Eastern rape culture and ordinary folk start comparing it to "manspreading" and "mansplaining."
Milo, you do amazing work in the service of Truth, thank you for that. What I'd like to know is, how can one work with you (seriously) or otherwise contribute to bringing about factual, rational, and truthful discourse back into the forefront of the socio-policital arena?
I have a team of researchers who help me out with talks, preparing reports, TV appearances. Always looking for new brains. Drop me a line. [email protected]
Hi thanks for doing the ama,
How would you recommend guys going into uni handle confrontation, Im plan to ignore most of the 'feminist' views that we have to accept, but many of the universitys I've been looking at have an environment where it's pushed down on everyone studying there, stuff like mandatory rape prevention classes is really making uni sound unappealing
Also how do you keep your hair so awesome?
Keep your head down and get through it. Don't rock the boat. Robbing you of an education would be a victory for them.
You'd have to ask the hair; it makes its own decisions.
I have enjoyed watching clips of you putting many people in their place. What is your favourite comeback you have given in one of your debates?
I don't think you can beat the darling heard around the world
Hey Milo. Big fan here and I can't believe you exist. I had tears in my eyes watching you debate people on men's situation in today's society. I couldn't believe someone actually stood up for us and could do it so eloquently and effectively. Sure you aren't a unicorn? So thank you thank you thank you.
My question is: do you have any advice for MGTOWs?
Milo not really a question but a bit of praise. I have gay uncles that are American, met in 1992, got married in LA, then had their license revoked when that shit storm happened. Now they live outside the United States and have Civil Union. I asked them, do you want to get married again. Their response was amazing. "why would we want something that degrades men, it's not worth it"
They don't know you exist but your work and others like you are making this world better.
Appreciate it
I don't have any questions. I would like to simply say that it's amazing to have a voice speaking for us that cannot be silenced simply because it's a straight white guy. The thought of these tards having an aneurysm trying to find an angle to attack you from makes my day.
Mine too! Thanks.
Milo, as you may know, political orientation is, to an extent, biological in nature. Because of this, since feminist women are less likely to breed than other women, do you think this will ultimately cause there to be a type of natural selection against feminist-minded women, ultimately leading to the downfall of modern feminism? Also, how do you think natural selection on the human mind will affect politics in the future?
We can hope. It certainly seems as though they are getting smaller in number, albeit louder, angrier, fatter and uglier.
I notice that yesterday (16th) they [BBC] also ran a documentary on domestic violence. But only against women. "Documentary examining the violence inflicted by men on women every day, telling the stories of all the women who died at the hands of a male partner or ex-partner during one year."
They are sexists.
Hey Milo! I'm a real fan of your work, particularly when you poke fun at the Atheist community (I've heard about you through Sargon, believe it or not). Although I'm not a Christian, it's always refreshing to see a religious believer who challenges the stereotype that religious people are nasty and intolerant. Do the folks on the Progressive left challenge your credibility based on your religious beliefs and if so, how do you counter that?
I tell them to get back to the arguments.
Hi Milo, I saw you on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast and you came across as well informed journalist with a solid finger on the pulse of modern feminism and men issues.
My question revolves around the 'war on boys' you touched on. I am in my mid 20s and grew up in Rural Alberta canada (think Texas but colder) and I don't recall seeing any kind of the suprression discussed.
Do you agree (or believe me) that rural communities are still islands from the war on boys, and do you expect it to stay that way?
Yes--you're lucky.
Milo, what do you think are the best and worst possible consequences for yourself and TRP for having done this AMA?
Why would there be any negative consequences?
Perhaps because the narrative suggests(societies) that any cultural or political force within western countries that contrast with PC, progressivism, feminism are negative which is why it's considered counter-culture, fringe & also why many here go to such great lengths to conceal our identities; lest upon our public discovery that someone in their private life congrates at this forum, you'll end up like a coffeeshop(Walking life expresso)in North Carolina.

From the feminists I have encountered in my own life, a lot of them seem to have the mindset of "Feminism means that women should have equal rights, therefore I am a feminist." while they also tend to buy into feminist bullshit, such as the wage gap, in varying degrees. What do you think is the best way to educate the more moderate feminists, and get them to see just how damaging their movement is to society?
Facts. Politely expressed, insistent facts. Ask them questions. Test their logic. Let them reach the conclusion on their own, on a path you set out with probing enquiry and the data you can bring to the conversation. More often than not, moderate, well-intentioned people who have swallowed this nonsense have a lightbulb moment--and go on to become your strongest allies.
So what brand / style of sunglasses were you wearing in your pics a while back? I need to be more glamorous, and want to steal your look.
I wear Ray-Ban aviators in the smaller 55mm size.
Hey Milo, thanks for taking the time aside to chat to us - what's your opinion on what the conservatives have done, or plan to do, in the UK since they've been in power? Specifically:
As an outspoken conservative, I'm curious to see how you would react to the conservative government seemingly pushing some really varied and often left-leaning policies.
[edit] it's also hilarious to watch TBP completely avoid attacking you. They vehemently criticise everything that turns up on here, but one of the most upvoted comments on their thread about your AMA is "meh" - it's funny to watch leftist identity-politics rules backfiring on them.
I'm not a fan of any of this stuff--except privatising the NHS, obviously. (If that were actually happening under the Tories, which it isn't.)
I'm not sure TBP is falling prey to identity politics. From what I can tell, they're just being polite because they want to get semi-serious answers out of me. Nothing wrong with being on best behaviour. Don't worry, I read the comments about my stuff when I'm not doing AMAs--many of them are insightful, and make a difference to what, and how, I write the next time.
Hi Milo,
In your debate w/Rebecca Reid I saw that you struggled to provide evidence to prove that men and women are different when talking about both gender pay gaps in respect to the decisions women make, and weather or not gender is a social construct.
I would like to point to some evidence in the sidebar of this subredddit that could have been helpful in that debate. In the sidebar you will find under "Theory Reading" a link to a post that says "gender studies is nonsense." If forgot which one of these amazing documentaries it is (it's probably the first), but in it there is an experimented conducted with infants where they are put into a room and allowed to choose any toy they would like to play with. The results were as you would expect. Boys picked trucks, girls picked dolls.
Also, in my opinion the most compelling revelation throughout the series is that in the most equal and gender neutral society on Earth (sweden or one of those places), where people can choose whatever profession they please, the majority of women go for social jobs like nursing, and the majority of men go for physical/technical/problem solving jobs. And in what may be considered one of the most oppressive and toughest places to make a living (I think it was india or something), more women took on technical jobs because they pretty much had to in order to make a living. This draws the conclusion that women are biologically predisposed to more social tasks and men more problem solving/technical.
Do you think that this is a valid piece of evidence that you could point to in your future debates?
I'm currently in high school and am writing my senior report on "Is there truly a wage gap?" You're a big part of my inspiration, but do you have any information that I could cite for this report?
You're best off doing some Googling on this one. But since you bring it up and I'm here... I'm thinking of putting together some resources for my website on this stuff so everyone can see where I get my data and use it themselves.
Hey Milo, major fan of your work. I read on your wiki that you can be successful without having a college/university degree. I'm currently enrolled in University (international relations) and was wondering if by your first and second year you already were passionate about writing and debating, resulting in you to drop out.
Were you always sure you'd have a future like you have now, or were there uncertain times? And what is advice you'd give to yourself during your first year in University?
Don't drop out. You need your education. I got very lucky--not just with job opportunities but being born a flamboyant, eloquent, handsome faggot. Not everyone has those gifts and even if you do, chances are you won't make it without an education and you only will in the media or some other fluffy subject. So finish your degree!
Milo, the idea of a "Patriarchy" is oft repeated and shouted by third-wave feminists as the reason for innumerable injustices against women of all races, classes, and walks of life. But they never look at the reverse.
Do you think that feminism has created a "Matriarchy" which purposefully discriminates against men? and could you expand on that idea?
P.S. I love you to death you fantastic faggot.
Society has always been a matriarchy. Female sexual power is the key to understanding all of history. What's mystifying about feminists is that they want women to step down to equality, when men were perfectly happy providing for women, worshipping women and competing with each other for women's attention.
Hi Milo! Appreciate you spending time here. My question:
What is your general view on today's women? Since you're kind of an 'outsider' on this yet very well informed on the major issues surrounding them. To put it very bluntly: do you mostly see narcissistic insufferable brats who lost all their use except for their uteri? Or do you see a group of people with many redeeming qualities who have been victimised by feminism just as much as we (men) have? Or whatever is in between that? I'm curious, thanks in advance!
The latter, mostly. Women have been fed a pack of lies just as men have. Most can be easily snapped out of it.
Had a radical female professor who had kids. She came to realize the practicality of a lot of the traditional gender roles because of it...so ya, that pretty much cured her of it.
Thanks Milo for all you do.
In the US Presidentianl primaries the candidates openly advocate for every conceivable group, gays, blacks, trannies, women, illegal aliens, vets, criminals,, college students, Muslims,Anchor babies,, Christians, kids, Mexicans, old people etc.
Every group except Asians, whites and men. Why is that taboo? Will it ever change?
Hi Milo,
You are awesome!
Simple question, what can the "average man" do to combat the rising tide of feminism / sjw extremism / insane policies and procedures in his everyday life?
Bonus would be if these actions hopefully don't end up with him being fired, expelled from school, or otherwise harmed. Thanks for all that you do!
Don't marry crazies. Reward women who don't sign up to the lunacy with your affections and attention. Because success is the best revenge, and the lonelier and unhappier and more miserable these bonkers third-wave cat ladies become, the more they will be forced to re-evaluate their terrible life choices.
Nah, they'll double down every time. But at least their bitter words fade into irrelevance.
What is a small everyday action a man can take to reassert himself in world becoming increasingly dominated by feminism?
Ignore women and do what you want
Hi Milo! First I just want to say thanks for doing good work and never holding back what you really think. You seem to come across everything so rationally and logically and that makes me really happy. My question to you is: if you think so rationally, why is it impossible for you to think that God may not exist. You even went as far as calling atheists idiots. If you think rationally about it, there is definitely a chance of God not existing. Thanks!
I like to tease atheists because they throw their toys out of the pram so readily. I don't really care what other people believe--so long as they support free speech and they have a sense of humour.
I know this is more on gender politics but I actually found you through your stance on multiculturalism.
What are your views on free speech in the UK (or what passes as free speech anyway) when it comes to the potential radicalisation of young muslims? Do you think people like Anjem Choudary should be allowed to operate in this country and if not how does that fit in with your cultural libertarian views of unquestioned free speech?
If I were being entirely consistent I would have to say that yes, he should be allowed to speak out in the open, to have his views challenged and have his hateful and absurd opinions exposed to ridicule and dissection. Better that, I think, than having him toiling silently in a mosque somewhere, poisoning young minds one by one. Perhaps we should force him to speak in the open!
Appreciate you being straightforward - always curious to see if people will defend a principle even while vehemently disagreeing with how it's being used.
Greetings from Greece Μίλωνα. Do you believe that third-wave feminists will ever be able to take control of the system of European countries as much as they did in America?
You kidding? Look at Sweden!
Milo, would you be so generous as to tactfully recommend a makeover to Ben Shapiro? I'm thinking, ditch the suit, grow a 'stache (NOT a beard), and definitely let some wind in that hair! We need more stylish conservatives like you, and not more Tucker Carlsons. He's got the 'tude, now he just needs some panache. Get #milocompatible .
I would not dare!

Hi Milo. Not a real question, but I wanted to say thank you. From the time you showed interest in #Gamergate, you have been nothing but welcoming to us. From setting a stream of playing your first games so you could talk to us and get to know us all the way to constantly defending gamers. You have eloquently smacked down those who seek to censor and force PC culture where it doesn't belong.
Thanks.
Appreciate it, thank you.
Have you read Otto Weininger's Sex and Character? I think you may find a lot of useful insights.
I haven't, but I'll check it out. Thank you.
[permanently deleted]
I like to tease people sometimes. I think it's pretty obvious when I'm doing it.
Milo, can you please make more videos? You videos are so much more fun to watch.
Yes, I'm trying to make time for these. I love doing them.
Hello Milo. Great to see you here. Quick question-
Why are lesbians and queer theorists always at the rotten heart of radical feminist ideology?
Lesbians are the root of all evil.
Hey milo I was a big fan of your recent article against women taking birth control pills, are you going to do more work on encouraging native european families to breed more despite the many problems Europe will be facing in the next couple of years?
Also where do you think a major reaction against the european political elites destructive immigration policies will take place? England, France, Germany or Sweden?
I thought Sweden until a few months ago, but now it's very clear that Germany is going to rise up.
Hi Milo,
I'm currently a journalism student in Dublin, Ireland and just wanted to say that your writing has been inspiring to me and I would consider you a personal role model. The work you're doing is incredible, as far as I'm concerned you're fighting for the right of free speech that is slowly being eradicated by militant SJW's and it's so incredibly satisfying to see someone so eloquently debate and destroy these people
Thank you
Thank you. I appreciate that.
What do you think is the future of Western Civilization?
Milo, I'm not familiar with your writing, but what do you think is the biggest thing straight men can take and learn from gay men in terms of sexual strategy, fashion, etc?
Also, how you have the nerve to go into the Rebecca Reid debate looking like a super villain?
Hi, Milo.
I'm from Santiago, Chile. I think some big changes are happening around here, waves from first world liberal influence reach even this corner, through campuses and our local mainstream media (whose biggest challenge is translating to Spanish lame Buzzfeed or Upworthy articles).
Despite of this, I've noticed that manosphere in the first world has the perception that Latin American societies are way more "traditional" or "redpill" than Europe or the US, and even encourage American men to migrate here or looking for Latin women. From what I've seen, radical feminism here has gone wild already. Perhaps it's a thing of big, modern cities. Or perhaps we're on an early stage and I can't dimension how crazy is the situation in the US or Europe.
So my question is, how much do you know about social changes in Latin America? From the experience in the first world, is there a way to stop or at least decimate the wave here?
Thanks.
Do gay men have a more straitforward interest in sex then strait women?
Women's sex drives are certainly far more context orientated then men's are.
https://youtu.be/Ip7kP_dd6LU?t=11m47s
According to pornhub only 20% of the visitators are women. Meanwhile 84% of the people who read erotic fiction are women.
For gay guys this seems flipped. For instance there was an alternative to playboy called playgirl for women but it got shut down because most of their readers were gay. Women had no interest in the magazine and would much rather read romance novels.
I think the fact that gay men have testosterone means that their sex drives resembles strait men's more.
For instance here's an NPR interview with a women who's took testosterone describing how her libido went through the roof
http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/220/Testosterone?act=2#play
What are your thoughts?
I honestly kinda think that strait women are gay and that gay and bi men are only people who are actually attracted to men. I mean women constantly compliment each other saying stuff like "you look sexy". I mean I could understand if women called each other "pretty" or "beautiful". But sexy? Why do they constantly use an adjective that explicitly describes an act that facilitates reproduction?Vic versa you can call a guy handsome , but if you call him sexy he'll definitely think your gay.
Also women are very touchey and loveydovey with each other. For instance check out this image which makes fun of how women pose with their friends.
Meanwhile just holding hands with a guy is seen as gay
I just want to say thank you for all that you do for men. Also, when you order pizza, what do you get on it?
Pineapple, because I'm not a monster.
Do you understand TRP and think it is effective and could possibly affect humanity in a good way, by helping broken men discipline themselves? And helping normal people increase social discipline for a better life?
Also how gay are you on a scale from 1 to 10?
I have friends whose marriages might have worked out if one or both of them read this subreddit.
9.7/10
Debating with feminists, BP people, manginas, SJWs – you get where I'm going with this – any point in entertaining a debate with them or humouring them? Or is it best to cut the topic and move on as they tend to have their minds made up?
Also what is your view on how feminists shame PUA, game, working out and general male self improvement? Do you feel while they want women empowered they want men to go the opposite way?
Linking to the above do you think they're conscious of the hypocrisy in their point (supporting women while demonising men with these endevours), or are they blissfully ignorant?
Do you think feminism is turning into a cult now whereby any opponent is an antifeminist of some sort who is guilty of "gaslighting", "triggerring" "privilege" etc?
You mentioned earlier to not really be super vocal about one's views about contemporary feminism till people like you give the green light (in that it becomes safer without it screwing up normal people's lives)... in your opinion when would you expect this green light to be given: 5, 10+ years?
How do you feel about being described as a men's rights activist by Yvette Cooper? http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/dec/16/online-sexism-social-media-debate-abuse
Can you please do a buddy cop movie with Gavin where Gavin mocks you for your fabulousness and you lob witty barbs at him all while the two of you take down an international Feminist cabal intent on taking over the world?
You know, you could just ask me by email, G.
Hey Milo. Love you & the way you can slap people with words (no homo).
What do you forsee in the future of gender equality in the UK? And do you think we're going to return to a healthy equilibrium over equality mindset? (Ie traditional gender roles brining a better balance to the world)
Milo, as an American I was dumbfounded by the muslim rape gang scandal that unfolded in Rotherham and elsewhere. I've read reports on it, but I feel they were too constrained by PC to really get into how this would happen.
What were the factors that led to the authorities (and feminists! Holy fuck, the one time they could have legitimately invoked "rape culture," they didn't!) looking the other way while this occurred? Was it simple Scrutonesque Oikophobia, or something more?
The fear of being branded racist, believe it or not. It leads liberals (of course, everyone involved in the cover-up was a progressive) to do insane, inhuman, absurd, sociopathic, inexplicable things.
I assume your article on the Princess Bride is in jest. It is a very Red Pill movie, and if you haven't I suggest reading the book. In the foreword the author (don't know if it is fiction or autobiographical) goes on about divorce rape from his attorney ex-wife.
Also...
"That was a warning highness. The next time my hands flies unrestrained. Where I come from there are penalties when a woman lies."
Take that hypergamy.
"Life is pain, Highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something."
Hampster poison.
Milo, any possibility of getting you into a Canadian university without being lynched? I'd love to witness one of your debates first hand, especially in a city like Vancouver or Calgary. (They're close and I don't have to travel, lol)
I'd love to come--get me an invitation! [email protected]
Milo, what is your opinion on nootropics? Do you use any drugs to help you perform better in public debates and speeches?
Everyone thinks I take stimulants, because I fidget so much. But that's just how I am. I'm probably ADHD or whatever. I should probably be on Adderall.
[permanently deleted]
Keep calm, rational and don't give them an excuse to call you a sexist or bigot. If they conflate disliking feminism with disliking women, calmly explain why they are wrong and then get back to the matter at hand. Use facts, statistics, studies. Anyone who doesn't come around after a while is a lost cause and you should cut them out of your life. They will only ever be a drain on you and they will add nothing of value to your life or to anyone else's.
Hey Milo, keep the good work. Love your writting and how you deal with people. If you happen to come to Barcelona, you got some free beer.
Hi Milo,
With the release of "The Red Pill Documentary" coming out. Do you think this will have any major impact on the views of supporters of third wave feminism?
Undeniable facts against undeniable emotion should prevail but will facts ever prevail over silly feminist logic?
Maybe I'm an idiot--history would suggest so--but I believe that the facts win in the end.
Or fuck it, we may as well all kill ourselves.
OT: Legalize it!Or not?
What are your thoughts on legalizing cannabis for recrational use?
